About this Event
CLASS DESCRIPTION:
Create your own upcycled plastic + alcohol ink earrings in this fun DIY workshop. Kristin of D. Prince Designs will demonstrate how to utilize several types of upcycled plastic and apply alcohol ink. First, participants will select [plastic shapes/plastic ghosts and pumpkins] cut from packaging and takeout containers. Then, we'll apply ink in the color palette of your choice and resin to seal the earring designs. Finally, we will create the earrings with gold-plated earring hooks and jump rings. Take your gorgeous new earrings home to wear and enjoy!
