This workshop will introduce you to designing and sandcasting your own jewels



3 hours Class size 4 to 6 guests       $290

This workshop will introduce you to designing and making your own jewels. You'll be working with jewellers wax to make your design and together we'll sandcast it into silver.
In this intimate three hour session, you’ll learn the ancient technique of sandcasting to create a simple ring or pendant. With guided instruction and multiple demonstrations, you’ll bring your designs to life with confidence.
Led by arts therapist Adi, this workshop is tailored to your individual needs. Adi’s warm and supportive approach ensures you’ll feel comfortable as you explore the process.
You’ll begin with hands-on experience in various wax carving techniques—building up, carving, sawing, filing, piercing, melting, dripping, and sizing your piece. Your creation will then be sandcasted in sterling silver right in the studio and Adi will finish and polish your work offsite, arranging for convenient pickup or delivery.
In this single-session workshop, you will learn about:
  • The sandcasting process
  • How to use the wax tools effectively
  • Hands-on time working with wax and adding finishing touches to your design
  • A demonstration of the sandcasting process once you complete your wax piece
This workshop welcomes anyone with a curiosity and desire to create. You’ll gain insights into Adi’s favourite techniques while discovering new skills in a nurturing environment.

I'm Adi, a registered creative arts therapist and maker of many little things. My journey towards practising creative arts therapy developed from curiously searching for a deeper connection to self, emotion, materiality and healthy creative expression.
As an arts facilitator, I love designing and creating workshops that facilitate the playful and imaginative exploration of art materials.
As an artist, jewellery is my personal arts practice. I draw inspiration from the natural qualities of materials and ancient sand-casting techniques, my work emphasises the authenticity of traditional methods. Every piece emerges from a hands-on, exploratory process that captures the raw beauty and character of the materials, reflecting a deep engagement with their inherent qualities.
