About this Event
NEW WORKSHOP FOR FALL 2024
Throughout my years of offering resin workshops, I have been asked numerous times if I would offer a class so that others could use a loved ones ashes in a piece of resin.
The time has finally arrived that this is now a reality and I extend this workshop event to all those who are interested in pursuing this respectful journey with me of encapsulating ashes in a memento of lasting significance.
There will be a few different options available other than creating 4 pieces of jewelry complete with chains and small gift bags and a tasteful box for presentation.
We will be using UV resin to create our 4 finished jewelry pieces and you will have options for the size/shape/colour of bezels that you can use in your design. There will also be practice pieces made available to you and a product that resembles ashes for this purpose. After you feel comfortable with the process you can then proceed with your finished pieces as you will have the confidence of what the resin is like to work with.
The beauty of this process is that YOU are creating these keepsakes and for a fraction of the cost of sending it to a stranger to make something for you. Having said that, I am the first to acknowledge that there are amazing artists who spend endless hours and money perfecting their process and offer incredible mementos that will not be offered here. These are specialists who have honed their skills and have the means to create pieces that are quite extra-ordinary. This workshop is for those who can't afford that process and/or want to do pieces themselves, respectfully and tastefully.
If you have a beloved pet's ashes, we do have some bezels that we could use for that as well.
No matter what you think of your creativity, everyone will make something beautiful during this workshop; but keep in mind that creating art is not about producing a product rather it's about enjoying and learning through the process of unexpected discoveries and perhaps a new friendship.
Gloves and aprons are provided. Refreshments such as coffee, tea, pop, water and assorted prepackaged treats are here for you but you can bring something of your own choice as well.
Preferred registration by etransfer to [email protected] or by using this ticket agent, Eventbrite.
