Meet Zoe Blundell

Hello! I am Zoe Blundell, the proud founder and CEO of Sand Arts and Crafts, based in the beautiful city of Lancaster, UK. As a devoted mother of four, I have extensive first-hand experience and qualifications in special education. Since launching my business in 2019, I have been passionate about bringing joy and creativity to children and adults alike through our diverse range of workshops and services.

My journey into arts and crafts began with a desire to create inclusive, fun-filled environments for all ages and abilities. This vision is the cornerstone of Sand Arts and Crafts, where every activity is tailored to inspire creativity and ensure enjoyment for everyone involved.

Our Workshops and Services

At Sand Arts and Crafts, we pride ourselves on offering an array of engaging workshops and services that cater to all ages and abilities. Our sand art workshops are a hit, featuring hundreds of designs and bespoke pictures tailored for personalisation or themed events. We travel to various events, fairs, and venues throughout Lancaster, bringing joy and creativity wherever we go. Our unique sand bottles come in various shapes, including elegant glass options that are especially popular with adults and perfect for sand ceremonies.

In addition to sand art, we offer fun, hands-on slime workshops where participants can create their own slime, and teddy workshops that allow you to build your own bear, complete with a bear-tificate, optional sounds, and clothing accessories. Our Stuffa Squishie Teddy Workshops are a delightful experience for both children and adults. Customers love the work we do, and we are dedicated to providing memorable, enjoyable activities for all.

We are dedicated to engaging with families through our diverse range of workshops. Our services are perfect for festivals, family-friendly bars, holiday clubs, and any venue that caters to families. By providing fun and creative activities, we aim to attract business customers looking to offer unique and engaging experiences for their guests.
