Paper House of Hollins Hill….



The sun has gone behind a tree so i have dragged myself off my sunny balcony to blog about my workshop yesterday…..I had a lovely day at Haworth Gallery in Accrington making paper houses with some creative locals who had come especially for the workshop. The House on Hollins Hill paper house  was part of a open shop project in Accrington- to find out more you can see my blog about this project at Anne Haworth’s Fan The paper house kit is a limited edition and is available at Haworth Gallery and other selected heritage venues. When i know exactly which heritage venues they will be going to  i`ll let you know, so you can go and pick one up. One of the gallery assistants told me how she had loved building it with her grandchildren and got so involved that she added her own hand painted wallpaper! The paper house was designed with the help of the lovely locals of Accrington young and old…Here are some of the pages for you to look at.

If you have never been to Haworth Gallery it is well worth a visit and the friendly gallery staff might even show you the beautiful photograph album that documents how the gallery used to look when it was a home.
