About this Event
Have you ever cooked Japanese curry at home? It’s a comfort home-cooked dish loved in Japan.
In this class, we’ll be making a miniature version using clay and UV resin — from the rice to the curry sauce and pork katsu toppings, you’ll craft every detail and take home your own adorable miniature curry!
This time, you’ll also make a little side salad with lettuce, cucumber slices and cherry tomatoes to go with your curry!
In these fun, hands-on classes, we’ll create miniature versions of classic Japanese food.
Learn the techniques you’ll need to create these adorable accessories, which you can make into clips or magnets to show off everywhere!
This class is beginner-friendly and a wonderful experience for anyone who loves crafting or Japanese miniature art.
