In this hands-on 1-day Saturday workshop you’ll have fun designing and casting 2 unique pieces of colourful resin jewellery.

No experience is needed to enjoy this course, which is specifically designed for beginner level students. Experienced jeweller Susanna Strati will guide you through the process step-by-step.

You’ll begin by learning how to mix resin, using opaque and translucent pigments, dyes and powders to create your own vibrant colours. Next, you’ll select from a wide range of easy-release silicon moulds and learn how to correctly pour and cast your resin.

As you work, Susanna will introduce you to the work of different contemporary jewellery artists for additional inspiration.

Once the resin dries in your moulds, you’ll turn out your pieces and finish them by hand using sandpaper and polishing pads.

By the end of the day, you’ll have 2 unique handcrafted jewellery pieces – a ring and a bangle – ready to take home.

Intimate class size: maximum 12 students.
Level: designed for beginner level students.
Wear: comfortable clothing and enclosed shoes (aprons provided).
Bring: yourself and lunch – all materials provided.

We use non-toxic cleaning products and methods wherever possible.
