About this Event
New Year Intentions Talisman Workshop ()
Come join us at the Price Center & Garden for a fun and creative afternoon making your own upcycled tin talisman wall hanging! This in-person event will teach you the basics of working with tin to create beautiful individual talisman pieces as well as how to infuse them with your intentions and build the final wall hanging. The class will take place Sunday afternoon, January 19th, 2025 from 2 to 5p.
No experience necessary - just bring your enthusiasm and we'll provide all the materials you need. Get ready to unleash your inner artist and walk away with a unique piece of wall art that will be an ongoing reminder of your intentions for the new year!
An amazing and sustainable material to work with, tin is filled with color, patterns and imagery that’s just perfect for making into moons, hearts, hands, eyes, clouds, feathers and other ancient symbols of protection and good fortune.
In this class you will be presented with hundreds of pieces of tin that have been pre-cut into a variety of shapes. You will gather up the pieces that speak to you in order to begin building your very own protective wall talisman.
You will learn how to finish these raw pieces in a variety of ways and also have time to create a few of your own from scratch using the available supply of tin. You'll have an opportunity to cut, form and finish the tin and learn how to rivet together multiple pieces to make things like eyes.
Once you've decided on the perfect combination of pieces, you'll learn how to assemble the final piece of art into beautiful jewelry for your walls.
Students will each make one talisman and leave the class with all the knowledge they would need to work with tin on their own. After the workshop I will also follow up with pdf files that outline the basic process as well as provide a complete tool list with links.
