Fascinator Making Hen Party in Fife

We travelled up to the lovely Kingsbarns in Fife (reminding me of Sunday day trips as a child!) to run a fascinator making class recently. The hens were staying in the lovely Morton of Pitmilly self catering houses surrounded by countryside and minutes away from the lovely Fife coast. There was as always, a mixture of sewing experience amongst the hens ranging from some queen sewing bees to some who hadn’t threaded a needle since their school days, resulting in looks of delight, intrigue and fear as we explained to them that they would all be hand sewing their fascinators.

As always all the hens created beautiful fascinators by the end of the class. We had loads of very different designs made, from simple pastel floral pieces to large black and green statement pieces and we were delighted with the fascinators that they made. The weather was so lovely that we even managed to do lots of our photos outside.

They were such a lovely bunch of hens, Rona and I had a great time running the class for them. Here are some photos of the class. xxx

Hen Parties

We were the first business in Scotland to offer fascinator making classes for hen parties so have lots of experience and know what makes a fantastic afternoon for you and your hens! Our fascinator making classes are a brilliant idea for hen parties in Edinburgh and hen parties in Glasgow. They are a great way to spend a few hours for those looking for a craft based hen party. You can choose to have the fascinator making class in one of our venues in Edinburgh or Glasgow where you can enjoy afternoon tea, sandwiches, cakes and tea or even champagne while you make your own fascinator or at your own venue allowing you the freedom to eat and drink whatever you like whilst the hens create their fascinators. We shall consider any locations across Scotland, not just in Edinburgh and Glasgow, so just get in touch to check availability. We are always happy to taylor classes to your style, budget and likes so don't be afraid to ask questions!

Other celebrations

Although our fascinator making classes are most popular with hen parties, we have also run them for a birthday parties, as part of a creative birthday celebration, for a girls day out where the girls enjoyed a fascinator making class before heading off to a spa for the afternoon, and for an antenatal group afternoon out where the mums-to-be got together and made something for them to wear on their next night out. It's fun to combine the fascinator making class with another activity - why not do a fascinator making class before all going out for dinner, do the fascinator making class before heading to a Ladies Day at the races, or have a morning in the spa before relaxing with afternoon tea whilst making a fascinator?

Timing and special themes

Timing - Classes usually last between 2 and 3 hours. We can do our best to shape the fascinator making class as you want it, so if you want it to be shorter or longer just let us know but we tend to find that between 2 and 3 hours is just right. Obviously this varies from group to group and indeed person to person depending on their experience and chosen designs. If you have any questions about the classes at all just get in touch via our contact page. Special themes - if your hen party or other celebration has a particular theme - whether that's a colour theme, a particular era or style, we can try to bring along the appropriate materials for the fascinator making class to fit in with your theme (we do need a minimum of 3 weeks notice to do this). Again, if you have any questions, just get in touch.
