With Age Comes Beauty - Creating Aged Embellishments
Jeni Calkins
6 Hours
Workshop Description
Being beautiful when you're young or new is easy but true beauty can only be found with age. Learn how to turn a new item into a true thing of beauty. We will start by creating embellishments casts from clay, stamps and molds. We'll cover our objects with a variety of unusual items to create an interesting texture. We will then turn it into an aged metal masterpiece with a easy painting technique that will turn any object into an old patina treasure.
This is project workshop.
