Large mould projects:
Unleash your goddess or the untamed lion!
Cast your goddess or Leo mould, set the mood with your chosen colours, pattern and background, and start adding some personality by using more moulds and painting it in!
As a base you can choose from a canvas, a shaped piece of wood, a shadowbox or a vase. You can also bring your own piece to liven up. Think a flower pot, jug or teapot, or a frame that fits around the mould (the length of these moulds is about 15 cm or 6 inches).
Embellish your project & background with decoupage, stencils, textured shapes, stamps, and other moulds (e.g. flowers, butterflies, love hearts, scrolls or borders). It is entirely up to you and there will be expert coaching to help you.
Price £50, duration ~ 2.5 hours.
