Alex creates these beautiful miniature scenes by hand using natural and found materials, and it was wonderful to see the exhibition enjoyed by so many visitors.

The accompanying workshop was a particular success too. Keep an eye out for an upcoming Christmas decoration workshop with Alex, where you’ll be able to make your own little natural Christmas decorations! 🎄
