What You Will Learn?

  • In this class, we will be creating a small home decor project: candle holders, to learn how to create the terrazzo effect, using acrylic resin..
  • Terrazzo is a very trendy material right now and its main advantage is that it can be customised with any colour, to match your home decor atmosphere..
  • I will teach you how to accomplish this amazing effect using acrylic resin..
  • Acrylic resin is a fantastic material that is easy to use and environmentally friendly..
  • I will show you where to supply this material, all the names it can have (Acrylic One or Jesmonite, to name a few… ) I will also explain to you how to use it at its best potential and tips and tricks to ease the casting process..
  • Then, we will do together small candle holders, with little material and tools you probably already have at home, so you can give it a try..
  • My goal is that at the end of the class, you will be able to use the same technique for many other home decor projects. Terrazzo is the perfect effect to exercise both personal style and creativity. Because truly, the possibilities are endless !.
  • This is a class for creatives and makers who wants to learn how to achieve this effect for their own DIY home decor projects, or furniture upcycling..
  • Students can be complete beginners with acrylic resin for this project..
