Online Classes and New Vibrant Colours

Hi <<First Name>>,

I hope you're all well and keeping safe. Here's a very quick round up of what's new in the world of Calligraphy Arts...

New Products

I just have to tell you about the new VIBRANT colours from Coliro – just what we needed in this stressful time. There's a full set and separate colours are available too.

Back in Stock

...is the Coliro Heart of Gold (£5.70)

These are difficult to make and therefore hard to get hold of - and we only have 20 in the shop. Terrific for the Autumn and Winter seasons that are upon us.

End Of Lines - Special Deals - 30% Discounts

There are some fantastic deals in my shop at the moment - all because Bortoletti have discontinued some of their range. Now you can benefit from 30% off the normal price of the superb Desk Sets and gorgeous Fountain Pens. We also accidentally over-ordered on the Ornate White feather sets, so the stock needs to be reduced - we're running out of room! We've even reduced the price of the quality Leather Journals by 30%.

Take a look as the stock is very limited and we'd hate for you to miss out...

Calligraphy Arts Online Evening Classes

I have got really positive feedback from my earlier online evening classes that ran in four-week blocks. The next one this year starts on 29^th October and runs until 19^th November. They will then start again on 21^st January to give everyone time to get over Christmas (or not) this year and will run until 11^th February, so it's perfect for a Valentine’s Day finished piece of work if you like.

There are more shown below and are really good value for just £20. You even get the class videos to play back at your leisure for practice and inspiration.

(We're getting used to the video settings etc. so we'll be experts soon!)

For those of you that already have the equipment you're good to go for a freshen up and design input.
For those who are looking to join as beginners this if excellent too, you will just need to get some equipment that includes a fine point nib. The classes are great for left or right handed people - so there's nothing to worry about on that score.
My Starter Pack deal is available and has sold very well for all people wanting to join new classes.
