CREATIVE CASTING WORKSHOPS

 
 

Come and learn a new creative skill with me at one of my small and relaxed workshops. The workshops take place at my beautiful studio in Thame, it's the perfect setting to catch up with a friend or two whilst learning new skills and creating something beautiful you will be proud of. The workshops are fun and super relaxed, It’s the perfect way to spend a few hours making something truly unique that you get to take home and enjoy at the end of the session.

If you are interested in a workshop for a larger group of people or to celebrate a special occasion please do get in touch with me on: jen@madsandmoodle.com as I am happy to do workshops in homes or other venues.

Gift Cards are also available to purchase, once gifted the workshop can be booked at the recipients convenience as new dates will be continually added to the website.

I had a lovely relaxing afternoon making Jesmonite coasters on one of Jen’s workshops. She’s friendly and informative and has a beautiful space to work from. So pleased to have come away from the afternoon with professional looking coasters! Will definitely be back for more.

Metallics & Marbling

Jesmonite metallics and marbling workshop

Create your own oval trinket tray or a set of two matching Jesmonite coasters to take home with you. Use metal leaf to add beautiful detail to your design and learn the art of marbling with Jesmonite.

The workshops are small with a maximum of 4 people so I have plenty of time to demonstrate, give advice and help you with your creations.

Learn the art of colouring, mixing and casting with Jesmonite, a water-based solvent free resin. Jesmonite has no VOC’s making it safe to use and environmentally friendly.

The design possibilities are endless so you really will end up with a unique trinket tray or set of coasters to enjoy in your home or to gift.


During the creative casting workshop you will learn how to:

  • Work with pigments to create your own bespoke base colour for your tray or coasters.

  • Use metal leaf to incorporate into your design.

  • Mix and cast Jesmonite into silicone moulds

Fantastic afternoon making Jesmonite coasters at Mads and Moodle. Jen took us through the process step by step, patiently and without rushing. She’s clearly very knowledgeable and taught us many tricks to get a super result. Very happy with my coasters and would highly recommend!

Terrazzo Coasters

The afternoon I spent at Jen’s workshop learning how to make two beautiful coasters was wonderful. They are the best things I have ever made personally and the opportunity to design and craft them under Jen’s guidance makes them extremely precious to me.
The combination of the calm, bright space in which the workshop is held, and the generosity and warmth of the host (Jen) made this event much more than a craft workshop. My two friends and I had the opportunity to relax and enjoy an afternoon away from the chaos of busy life.
I cannot recommend this workshop highly enough, I will be back to learn more. Thank you Jen!
