Hello

Welcome to Lydia Packham Calligraphy. An Essex based modern calligraphy studio.

"It was my first time going to a calligraphy class and I LOVED every single second! Lydia (beautiful inside and out) was so patient and enthusiastic about calligraphy which made learning the skill all the more fun. By far has been my most favourite workshop I have ever been to and I would 100% recommend her calligraphy sessions. ❤️ X"

"Amazing beginners workshop with an excellent teacher who’s attentive, patient and enthusiastic. The course was accessible to everyone and I thoroughly enjoyed this experience. Lydia was not only helpful before and during the course but also easily contacted for assistance after. Would definitely recommend this to everyone.

Hi! Thank you for dropping by. My name is Lydia & I am the founder of Lydia Packham Calligraphy.

I have spent the past four years learning this beautiful art form & I have loved creating hand crafted stationery for weddings & events. You can find more about my story here.

One of my biggest passions is sharing the calming art of modern calligraphy with others & over the past year I have taught over 350 lovely clients at my beginner & improver workshops.

In response to the difficulties caused by the Covid-19 crisis. I have now made it possible to experience the calming nature of calligraphy from your home! My comprehensive online beginner learning experience provides over 50 videos, quizzes, tips & tricks. This beginner course will take you from beginner to improver in no time at all. You can find out more here.

My online store is still sending out beginner & improver kits as well as my favourite calligraphy supplies. This enables you to access everything you need from the comfort of your home. You can browse my list of calligraphy supplies here.

Due to Covid-19 in person workshops have sadly been postponed until further notice. Stay home, stay safe & I will hopefully be teaching you in person very soon. Any questions or enquiries please don’t hesitate to get in touch via hello@lydiapackham.com
