AS Christmas approaches many of us will be thinking about Christmas shopping and the act of giving gifts this Christmas.

If you are anything like me, most of your friends and family have enough ‘stuff’ and trying to think of something unique and personal becomes harder and harder each year.

Why not go for a Bespoke Christmas in 2017?

Get creative, have fun and make personalised gifts for your loved ones this year.

At Busy Brush Cafe, Wallingford’s award-winning craft cafe, you can get creative with pottery painting or decopatch craft, while enjoying barista coffee, loose leaf or hot chocolate served in a charming vintage china teapot.

Of course, we also have some yummy cakes to keep your energy up for a couple of hours of fun, making your very own bespoke gifts.

You could paint your own Santa treat plate for Christmas Eve; a set of plates for your family Christmas dinner or, of course, create personalised baubles ready for your Christmas tree.

If colourful, festive paper is more your thing, why not decopatch your own 3D mini Christmas tree; reindeer and sleigh or candy canes and stockings, ready to hang on your own tree this Christmas?

If you feel you don’t have the time or the creative confidence, you could ask us to paint something for you – we take on commissions, just ask.

Why not get some friends together and make an afternoon of it?

A memorable experience crafting together and creating bespoke gifts for your family – everyone’s a winner.

We are open between Christmas and New Year so you could also buy a gift voucher for your friends and family to come in and paint their own pottery.

A family day out doing something fun and hands-on, creating a treasured piece of pottery to keep forever.

So forget the socks for Grandad, cosmetics for your sister or latest album for your bestie – why not make this Christmas a ‘Bespoke Christmas’ and give Grandad his own shed name plaque, your sister a personalised teapot and your best mate a coaster with the album cover painted on it.

We charge a one-off £3 studio fee plus the cost of the piece of craft you choose off the shelf, the individual pieces range from £3-£60 each.
