Jesmonite Festive Candle Holder Making Workshop
Jesmonite Festive Candle Holder Making Workshop
Come along to a fun festive workshop and create a beautiful centrepiece for your Christmas dining table or mantelpiece. You will learn new creative skills with me, designing, creating and taking home a set of two beautiful candlestick holders. The workshop is fun, mindful and super relaxed so why not bring a friend along too. It’s the perfect way to get into the Christmas mood spending a few hours making something truly unique that you will get to take home and enjoy at the end of the session.
I will be on hand to demonstrate, give advice and help you with your creations and you will learn the art of colouring with pigments, mixing, marbling and casting with Jesmonite, a water-based solvent free resin. Jesmonite has no VOC’s making it safe to use and environmentally friendly.
Learn how to incorporate gold, silver and copper leaf with the jesmonite resin, and also the art of marbling. The design possibilities are endless so you really will end up with a truly unique set of candlestick holders to enjoy in your home or they also make an excellent gift.
During the creative casting workshop you will learn how to:
Work with pigments to create your own bespoke base colour for your candlestick holders
Learn how to incorporate metal leaf into your design
Mix and cast Jesmonite into silicone moulds using marbling techniques if desired
Sand and polish your candle holders
Seal the candle holders
