About this Event
Get away from it all for the day and join me for a relaxed workshop where we'll transform broken, unwanted pepper mills and sofa legs into candlesticks/holders.
In the morning, we'll choose and prep our base materials, before, practicing paint techniques on wood scraps ready to transfer the designs to our candleholders/sticks.
Choosing your favourite from a variety of paint techniques, including distressing, saltwashing, stencilling, dry brushing, and more, you will then paint, and finish your candleholder, before adding copper pipe (candlesticks) or a reclaimed candle plate.
