About the event
Marbling Festive Decorations
with Lisa Ibbetson
_______________________________________
Saturday 12th December
Doors open 11am
Workshop from 11:15am
We're super excited to welcome back Lisa Ibbetson for another of her wonderful marbling workshops!
Last year Lisa brought us a Suminagashi (Japanese Marbling) through her Mindful Marbling workshops. This December we are amping things up with a playful festive morning of marbling - western style, to create beautiful colourful treasures to keep and to gift.
Lisa will guide you through a series of experimentations, so you can get the hang of the process. You'll explore and play with colour, whilst honing your technique and creating some beautiful gift tags along the way. Once you have that down, you'll use your new skills to marble ceramic festive baubles - so lovely you'll probably want to keep them up all year round!
Leave with a set of beautiful ceramic baubles and a collection of decorative gift tags.
No creative experience needed, just curiosity and an openness to possibility
