It's never too early to do Christmas Resin Art!Working with resin is amazing and the possibilities are endless - really!
Each participant is given three trees with a base to transform into their own magical table centerpiece. The tree blanks and base are made from `1/4" baltic birch and fit snuggly together but can be taken apart for storage.
We have the 11" round base with the trees in a circular pattern with an area in the middle to place a candle, small bowl, or any other decorative items you may want to display OR you can choose to display them on their separate/individual bases so they can be displayed in a different way! In the picture shown below, I have an acrylic mini tree which lights up and a small glass deer. Pine cones or other items would also look so beautiful.
The second option is three trees standing independently on their own bases and they can be displayed as a grouping or split them up and have them arranged however you like. This then allows you to decorate each tree as a separate work of art in various colours!Sizes are the same for both options: Trees are 7-10.25" high
What to Expect During the Class:
You will be given ample time and product to practice with prior to doing your resin on your trees so that alleviates the pressure of not being sure how things will go. This way you can test your colour combination choices as well as have the opportunity to see how resin flows and blends etc. Your Creative Coach BerylAnne will provide you with demonstrations and direction on how to prep, mix resin (various pastes, alcohol inks, glitters, diamond dust, interference powders, alcohol ink, mica powders, etc. will be available); move resin and how to control it to give you a desired result. Create cells, lacing and stunning colour variations with all the variety of supplies on hand. You will practice on three small pieces of wood board beforehand (to represent the width of the trees) and then when you feel comfortable, you will resin your final piece and decorate it with reflective glass, german glass WOW!., small swarovski flatback crystals, glitter, diamond dust, aurora flakes, whatever you can find that you would like to put on your treasure of trees!!!
Resin requires a minimum of 12 hours to cure so you won't be able to take your project home with you the same day. Part of this is a teaching workshop where previous experience is not required but helpful and there is an age requirement of 18+. Dress accordingly as resin is impossible to remove once on your clothes (aprons and gloves are provided).
Refreshments such as pop, water, coffee & tea and a little snack are included but feel free to bring your own if you want.
Lower level studio location so one flight of stairs (with solid railing) is involved.
All supplies are included in the cost of the workshop.
P LEASE NOTE: If you are unable to purchase your registration here through EB, please contact BerylAnne, [email protected] directly. There are cancellations and spots become available that aren't indicated here.
