Resin Jewellery
Resin Jewellery Workshop
The Resin Jewellery class 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 using both moulds and bezels and learn how to turn your pieces into on-trend jewellery that you'll be proud to wear. You'll learn how to colour resin, how to embed objects, as well as a simple resin marbling technique using both moulds and jewellery bezels. You'll come away from this workshop inspired with so many ideas for creating resin jewellery
What this course is all about:
This is a four-hour course and it covers all aspects of how to work with both UV resin and 2 part 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.
What you'll make:
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.
What instruction you'll receive:
Classes are restricted in size so you receive individual instruction, and you will leave the workshop confident that you can continue casting at home.
What to bring:
A long-sleeved shirt. Everything else is provided
