Be Happy Be You

Be Happy Be You

SOLD OUT

Friday 10th July 6:30-8:00pm

Suitable for girls and boys aged 11-18
A workshop learning how to start a bullet journal and the benefits of documenting your life creatively. 

Abby will talk you through her journalling journey and show you her journals and favourite spreads. Abby will show you some excellent skills for planning and Beth will show you how to use a journal artistically, and document your time during the summer. Think of a diary but with pictures instead of tons of words! Something that in years to come, you will treasure. 

We will also chat about creative social media accounts and YouTube channels. You probably already know about Abby’s (a teen herself) instagram journey of reaching over 100,000 followers in the last year.

We’ll also tell you all about the awesome stationery that is available for bullet journalling and the places you can purchase it.

The activities will be inspired by #BeHappyBeYou and there will be a chance to WIN a copy of the book! Penny Alexander (one of the authors) will also be popping on to chat to you about the book and how it became the teenage creative best seller on Amazon during lockdown.

How does a Beth Morris Workshop zoom workshop work?
The format of all three workshops will be the same. The participants will be muted on entry to the zoom session and it is very much a listen and learn workshop. However, this does mean the energy and enthusiasm will be any less that if we were all in the same room together. There will be chats, interviews and demonstrations to watch and you will be encouraged to engage with questions via the chat facility on zoom. The tasks will be short but inventive so will get you thinking quickly and will leave you keen to develop your creativity after the workshop.

We will provide advise about the best retailers to buy journalling art equipment and if there is one thing I know for sure, it is that you will become a stationery addict after this workshop!

I have two children that want to attend, do I buy two tickets?
The cost of the workshop is valid per household. So if you have more than one child, please only purchase one ticket. Siblings can all watch the same workshop.

How will I access the workshop?
The day before the workshop is due to take place you will receive the zoom ID code and password. Please do not share this with anybody else. All workshops will take place promptly at the times advertised. 

How do I enter the prize draw? 
I have some copies of the books to give away. All participants will be given a raffle number and during the workshop, I will ask the author to choose a number at random. The winner will then be contacted and the book posted out by Royal Mail. 

What will I need for the workshop?
Please bring the following with you:

  • Note book or paper

  • Sharp pencil

  • A rubber

  • Washable felt pens or any water based markers (not sharpies) 

  • Highlighters (if you have them)

  • Water pot
