Step into a refined world of traditional decorative craftsmanship in this elegant jewellery workshop, where delicate metal frames are transformed into wearable art.
In this hands-on class, you will create your own brooch or hairpin using a time-honoured technique inspired by traditional enamel and resin inlay processes. Guided step-by-step, you’ll learn how to layer textures, colours, and light to achieve a luminous, jewel-like finish.
You’ll begin by preparing the metal base using a traditional washed sand technique, creating a subtle textured foundation. From there, you’ll learn how to mix resin and pigments, then carefully fill the design with layered colour, glitter, and decorative elements such as pearls and fine embellishments.
Once the inlay is complete, the piece is finished with a clear resin sealing layer, giving it depth, durability, and a beautifully polished surface.
This process is slow, meditative, and deeply satisfying—a perfect balance of precision and creativity.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll take home a completed resin inlay brooch or hairpin, finished in your own colour palette and decorative style.
Each piece is unique and wearable, making it ideal as a personal accessory or a meaningful handmade gift.
This workshop is suitable for adults, teens, and kids, and is designed to be both relaxing and creatively enriching.
