little tins of loveliness

At Little Tins we want to share our passion for making through courses and workshop plus our Little Tins kits. All developed and delivered by makers who can teach. Both of us have years of experience in our specialist areas, which we want to share with you. Our courses are more than just learning new skills and techniques; they’re about learning with confidence and the company of like-minded people and tutors. “It was a lovely class yesterday. It’s been such a hectic time at work the class was a little oasis of tranquility and centeredness. Thanks both of you for being so in tune and creating the perfect, start to my holiday.” We believe that learning should be a positive experience, so with small class sizes we provide an environment for you to progress at your own pace, to build confidence whilst having an enjoyable experience. “I never thought I could have done all that today!” Our excellent rate of re-enrolment is a testimony to the high standard of teaching and learner enjoyment, also the variety of courses and products we offer. We have a wonderfully spacious and well-equipped studio at Markeaton Park Craft Village in Derby’s beautiful Markeaton Park. “I love coming here, it’s always so calm.” Our carefully designed Little Tins kits have beautifully illustrated step-by-step instructions as well as high quality fabrics and components. A new addition we are delighted to be stocking Merchant and Mills products, a company we have admired for a long time for the quality and function of their products. We look forward to meeting you.

Carole Smollan enjoys teaching, particularly beginners and children, “I encourage them to access their creative processes.” I find this fascinating and inspiring and with children I believe it sets them up for a lifelong advantage. Smollan began exhibiting her art work from the age of 17. As a lace and lingerie designer she became head of a public company, won a prize at the Cologne Fair and was elected “Young Business Woman of the Year. Subsequently she ran her ceramic studio for 20 years making large murals for public buildings – the proudest one being in the foyer of the Constitutional Court in Johannesburg. Creating ceramics for the blind in Gardens, Cape Town was an awe inspiring experience. For many years she did the critique for a distance learning Art Course. In 1996 she emigrated to England without her kilns and began to develop her textile work. Her love of cloth began in her grandfather’s tailoring room. Smollan specializes in Synagogue Art. She has been commissioned to produce artwork for synagogues all over the world, exhibited on many one-man shows and museums all over the world, recently with a show of 150 pieces at the Yeshiva University Museum in New York.

My work is defined by my mixed family background, travels and love for natural objects. My handcrafted products are individually made in my studio in East London. My homeware collection offers an alternative to the daily life otherwise filled with massed produced items. As well as being my workshop for personal use, my studio also offers pottery classes, studio share and kiln hire.
