RESIN COLLAGE
Cutting out pieces for collage is relaxing and therapeutic and the finished result is so satisfying. Choose  from several design images and papers to cut, arrange, paste and admire before adding a small quote or words of your choice. To top it off you will pour a layer of resin to cover your collage which will make it POP and give it a professional glass like finish. All of this is achieved in 2 hours but because of the drying time of resin you will not be able to take your masterpiece with you on the night but we will arrange getting it to you in a day or two when it is ready.
 $40 all materials supplied

Dates available

Bring along your own vintage cup or other special container (up to 200ml volume) or you can use one of our selected containers. The wax tablets are decorated with dried flowers and can be hung in the wardrobe or tucked into your lingerie drawer to release a delicate fragrance. Personally I think they are to beautiful to hide away so mine sit on my dresser. You will be given basic candle making instructions and will get to take home your container candle and 2 wax tablets. $40 (bring your own container if you have something special to use or use one of our selected glass or China containers.)
