Resin Jewellery & Mould Making Workshop
Made By Me WorkshopCreate your own wearable works of art from a mould that you will make yourself!
In this specifically tailored one of a kind workshop we will start by teaching you how to make your own silicon jewellery mould and then we will take you through the steps to create your own resin cast jewellery pieces!
You will start the workshop by selecting your shapes, we have a huge range of shapes that you can mix and match to suit your own style and tastes. Once your shapes are selected we will teach you how to successfully set up your mould, how to properly mix your silicon and then create your mould. While your mould sets, we will take you through the steps to mix, colour and cast your resin.
Once your mould is set you will remove it from its form and then cast your resin! Your mould is yours to keep, you can use it cast many more jewellery pieces at home - presents sorted for the foreseeable future!
Your resin will need to dry in place overnight so you will need to return at a later date to collect your work. You will have full use of our drilling and finishing station when you return so that you can assemble your finished jewellery pieces.
What you will learn:
- What silicon is and how to properly mix it and make a mould,
- What resin is and how to safely work with it,
- How to properly mix your resin,
- How to add different pigments, powders and glitters to colour your resin,
- How to cast resin using your silicon moulds,

What you will get:

- Enough resin to create your jewellery pieces,
- A huge choice of pigments, powders and glitters to colour your resin,
