About this Event
Join us for a fun workshop hosted by Aferdita who is a certified Powertex instructor!
What is Powertex: the versatile, environmentally friendly, acid free, water based universal medium which can used as a fabric/textile hardener/stiffener and also combined with other products from the Powertex range to create a whole range of clays and texture pastes.
Powertex air dries and becomes rock hard. Dip textile in Powertex, wring it out well and wrap or drape it around a frame or object to create amazing artworks and crafts.
Once dry, pieces can be decorated with paint or pigments. Once finished, Powertex creates unique pieces of artwork for inside or outside display. For outdoor use Powertex can be weather proofed with two layers of Easy Varnish.
We will be upcycling with old CDs fabrics, moulds, beads, broken jewellry etc.
