10:00 - 12:00

Level: Beginner and up

Join me for a fun, creative, and experimental workshop where you will learn how to cast your own bespoke homewares using Jesmonite and a variety of moulds. Jesmonite is a versatile, non-toxic material that sets into a beautiful stone-like finish. It’s a professional quality eco-resin that offers great design possibilities. In this hands-on workshop, I will guide you through the entire process, from start to finish.

You will learn how to:

• Mix and pigment Jesmonite AC100 to create your own unique colour palette.

• Choose from a selection of moulds to shape your designs.

• Experiment with exciting decorative techniques, including marbling, splatter, and terrazzo effects.

• Apply the finishing touches and seal your pieces so they're ready to use

I will provide a variety of square, circular and hexagonal silicone moulds which can be used to make coasters, trinket dishes or even a tray for your peppermill. They provide a flat surface which is perfect for starting out with Jesmonite as you can experiment with all the different techniques, and some have a rim making them really versatile forms.

Because Jesmonite sets so quickly, you’ll get to experience the complete creative journey, from the initial design to a finished product, all within a two-hour session. You could make a matching set or experiment with a couple of different styles – the choice is yours. This is a wonderfully satisfying workshop, and you’ll leave with two unique, handmade homewares to proudly display in your home or give as a thoughtful gift.
