And look, a new Online Watercolour Workshop coming soon ....

 


The team were back together again last weekend, making a Watercolour Special, which is due out in January.

We can't wait for you to see it.

We have a great selection of recorded workshops that you can buy and download from the Treetops website, from Beginners through to Advanced, perfect for the winter months, a great time to get your paints out.  Each film comes with a materials and paint list, images of all the stages in the workshop and some top tips from Claire.



December Aroma Yoga Classes

 


We have had some amazing Aroma Yoga evenings with Rachel this month, with our final Festive Aroma Yoga this Wednesday.

We have had an evening of Chakras, a Relax & Destress evening and then our fun Festive Aroma Yoga evenings.

Rachel has excelled herself with her playlists and beautiful essential oils.

And the duvets have been much loved!

We have enjoyed lots of delicious canapes, catering for all dietary requirements, vegan, vegetarian, gluten free





We have a few Wellbeing Gift Boxes left which can be collected from Treetops or delivered locally.

7 beautiful items; a Treetops Candle, a Treetops Essential Oils Rollerball, lavender & geranium bath salts, loose herbal tea, a lavender eye pillow, a vegan chocolate bar and a small lavender bag.  All of this in a lovely box for £50.


We have lots of treats on our Christmas Shopping table, so pop by if you are passing, or visit the shop on the website.


Rachel and I look forward to seeing you in 2023 for more relaxing Aroma Yoga.

Dates to be announced.


A Winter Scene Art Class

 


Our final Art class of the year with Claire

A Winter Scene

Claire demonstrated with pen which was then followed with a light wash of watercolour paint.








Beautiful pictures, you can feel the cold in them!

We warmed up with a festive casserole for lunch.



After lunch there was time for a few quick sketches.

Christmas Canapes Class

 


Well this class was so brilliant and busy, I didn't get any time to take photos!

But I can say we had a fantastic group in to watch the demonstration of over 10 different canapes for this upcoming festive season, both savoury and sweet.

Learning what could be prepared ahead of time, with plenty of top tips, and sharing of products. In true Blue Peter style I had made extra of many of them, so there wasn't one canape that couldn't be tasted.

Everyone enjoyed a glass of fizz on arrival and enjoyed the canapes being passed around.  

Thanks everyone for coming, it felt and smelt so festive!

Water Lily Pond Oils Class

 


Our Oils class was bright and beautiful, we painted Water Lilies amongst a vibrant green and blue pond, the end results were brilliant.


We all had such a lovely day, the majority of our artists had not painted with Oils before and they really enjoyed themselves.


Claire starts the class with a full demonstration of the painting for everyone to watch, before they start to put paint on the canvas.





As you can see they are all so different, I love this shade of pink with the green and blue.





Below is our family trio out to spend a lovely day together, we also had another mother and daughter come together too.


Lunch was Scandi Salmon, which was delicious followed by a pear and chocolate crumble.


We will definitely be holding another Oils Class next year, so look out for the date.

Cornish Harbour Watercolour Class

 


It's been a busy month at Treetops so far, so I am catching up on my blog posts.

These photos are from our Cornish Harbour Watercolour Class with Claire on 1 November.  We also used a fine black marker towards the end to highlight certain areas of the painting.


We started with a gentle pencil sketch of the Harbour


Followed by a gentle first wash of paint.  

Some of you may recognise the harbour as St Ives


We had some colourful boats and some beautiful water painted.





Lunch today was a delicious lamb and apricot tagine served with flatbreads.


Thank you everyone for coming it was a lovely day.

Christmas Canape Class


We will be holding a Christmas Canape Class at Treetops on Thursday 10 November
from 7pm - 9pm.


The class will be demonstration style, you will be greeted with a glass of fizz on arrival.


You will be shown how to make fun and delicious treats for friends and family, watch how to create impressive mini mouthfuls and see how you can get maximum taste into a bite size serving.


Learn what can be prepared ahead of time (which is always useful at this time of year), and if you are need to create for any specific dietary requirements, we can help you with this.
