This workshop is a wonderful introduction to the world of resin and shows you how much fun resin is. You'll create a variety of different pieces of jewellery and come away with a whole lot more ideas than we can possibly fit into the workshop.

Resin Jewellery Workshop
Workshops are held at my Underwood studio in Brisbane

This is a 4.5 hour course and it covers all aspects of how to work with both UV resin and epoxy resin including:

safety and preparation tips;
an explanation of the different types of resins;
pouring, layering, embedding and coating, using a variety of ephemera, found objects and other interesting elements;
a range of colouring techniques; and
basic jewellery making techniques.

In the workshop you will be working with two different types of resin. You will create many pieces some of which will be finished in class, whilst others will need to cure for 24 hours before they can be finished. These can be collected the day after the workshop or posted to you if you prefer. You will use plastic and silicone moulds as well as jewellery bezels and other objects to contain the resin.

All the pieces you create in the workshop are yours to keep. If you select Option 2 (please see below) you will also take home the class kit, and comprehensive class notes which will be an invaluable tool to refresh your memory about the finer points covered in the workshop. You'll have sufficient resin left to create many more pieces at home.

Classes are restricted in size so you receive individual instruction and you will leave the workshop confident that you can continue casting at home.

For further information on the course or to enrol in an upcoming workshop, please contact me.
