Kids Workshop in Sydney: Make a Jesmonite Photo Frame and Trinket Tray with Shells or Marbling!

Shake off winter and dive into a day of spring creativity! This Jesmonite workshop blends coastal textures with bright marbled colours as kids design two stylish décor pieces they’ll be proud to use or gift: 

• A rectangular photo frame finished in terrazzo with real shell chips
• A shell-shaped trinket tray, marbled with two colours of their choice

Jesmonite is a safe, eco-friendly casting material that’s fun to work with and produces stunning results. With shells, pigments, and endless design possibilities, kids will enjoy experimenting with textures and patterns while crafting pieces that feel both fun and functional.

What Kids Will Learn:

• How to mix and blend pigments to create their own unique colours
• How to create a marbled finish in their chosen colour palette
• How to create a terrazzo-style effect using real shell chips

👉 Unlike at-home craft kits, this guided workshop ensures every child finishes two high-quality, functional pieces — and leaves with the skills to keep creating in future.

What to Bring:

• A packed lunch, snacks, and a water bottle.
• Please avoid foods containing nuts or other common allergens (as a courtesy to other participants).
• Kids should wear old clothes they don’t mind getting messy.
