Join Gina from Brisbane's Kubist Design and Greenhusk Studio for a crafternoon making planters and clay jewellery. This class is suitable for all skill levels and is perfect for a Sunday session, solo or with your mates.

What you'll learn:

  • An introduction to polymer clay and making Kubist planters and earrings.
  • An introduction to Tillandsia, Rhipsalis and string succulent plant care.
  • Techniques used in shaping, detailing and personalising your clay planters.
  • Techniques used in creating fun effects in your design such as texture, foiling, terrazzo, marbling, applying a metallic lustre finish.

  • Guidance on stringing your clay and coco planters.

At the end of the class, you will take home two hand-painted coconut shell planters, as well as a Kubist Clay planter or pair of statement earrings, string succulent or Rhipsalis for each.

You do not need to consider yourself 'crafty' to have a great time and go home with some beautiful pieces at the end of the session - crafting newbies unite!

I began collecting Tillandsia at home in 2017/18 and kept wondering how I could showcase them without occupying cabinet top or shelf space. It was very trial and error at first. Size and scale are important when dealing with polymer clay, so the planters needed to have a certain thickness and shape to prevent them from breaking from a fall. The mini planters, one of the first planters I made, are the most durable and would be highly unlikely to break from falling. This makes them perfect for hanging at height or outdoors!
