Barcelona's Creative Haven: Mixed Media Magic at El Niu de l'Art

Hi Everyone

An Artistic Escape in Barcelona: Crafting Magic, Inspiration, and El Niu de l'Art

Recently, I embarked on a dream getaway to Barcelona – a haven for creative souls! My adventure centred around El Niu de l'Art, a haven unlike any other – my personal favourite shop dedicated to the mesmerizing world of mixed media art. Stepping into El Niu de l'Art is akin to stepping into a creative wonderland, filled with warmth and a sense of belonging.

A Weekend of Mixed Media Delights

The company couldn't have been better – a fantastic group of ladies and the incredible Montse, my friend and the mastermind behind El Niu de l'Art. Fueled by inspiration and Montse's infectious enthusiasm, the creative energy flowed freely throughout the weekend.

The creative spark ignited during my Barcelona trip with El Niu de l'Art is still burning brightly! There's something truly special about a relaxed Saturday dedicated to upcycling, and today, I decided to embrace that magic.

Why Upcycle Ornaments?

  • Sustainable Twist: Give pre-loved ornaments a new lease on life, reducing waste
  • Unleash Your Creativity: Experiment with different techniques and colours to create a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects your style.
  • Relax and Recharge: The calming process of upcycling is a perfect way to de-stress and disconnect from the digital world.
  • Budget-Friendly Fun: Transform a charity store find or forgotten ornament from your attic into a beautiful new decoration, saving money on store-bought pieces.

So, armed with the inspiration gleaned from my weekend and the amazing techniques I learned from Montse, I unearthed a forgotten ornament from my craft stash. This neglected piece underwent a spectacular transformation. I love it, love it, love it!






El Niu de l'Art Online School: Unleash Your Inner Artist

Calling all creative minds! El Niu de l'Art Online School caters to artists of all levels, offering beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels. This fantastic platform allows you to learn Montse's unique mixed-media techniques from the comfort of your own home, no matter your location.

While Montse's online courses are in Spanish, the beauty of the projects lies in their visual nature. We can still glean valuable inspiration from her videos! By focusing on the clear demonstrations and the listed products, we can translate the techniques into our own projects. If you are interested please go to: https://www.patreon.com/laboratoriodeideas
