Join us at this fun workshop and explore Resin Art by using 2 different types of resin to make coasters and jewellery.
Join tutor Emma of Nature’s Inspirations to learn how to work with resin to create a beautiful set of coasters and jewellery from start to finish.
You will start the day by using a vegan non toxic epoxy resin (1:1) and learn the ‘bloom’ technique (3D flowers) by mixing resin with pigments and alcohol inks. You will create three heat resistant coasters, matching or using different styles.
While the coasters are curing you will explore how to work with UV resin. UV Resin is vegan, cruelty free and non-toxic for a faster cure allowing you to create beautiful botanical jewellery pieces, cufflinks, keyrings or brooches from start to finish.
Choose your botanicals, homegrown or foraged in Gloucestershire, pressed and dried by Emma in her own home. Discover how to arrange the flowers before setting in your choice of pendant (heart, star, circle or Hexagon) then then cure using a UV lamp. You’ll also be able to create a your very own botanical resin earrings (studs or dangly) and a ring to make a matching set that you will able to wear home!
This workshop is suitable for beginners with a minimum age of 14 years. Children under 16 years must be accompanied by a participating adult.
Cost: £85 to include all materials, tea & coffee. Please bring lunch and an apron. If you have your own pressed flowers and would like to use them, please bring them along.
