Sculpting with Tin

About the Workshop

Transform all those old biscuit and sweet tins lurking in your cupboard into something colourful and unique to decorate your home using just a few simple tools and techniques. It could be a bird, an animal or why not make a funky wreath or bouquet of flowers.

In this all-day workshop, you will learn how to prepare and cut the tin; how to emboss and add texture; how to incorporate buttons, feathers and other materials; and how to use a pop riveter or wire to connect pieces together. After a short introductory exercise, you will have plenty of time to work on your own project. No experience of metalwork required, just come along and have fun trying something new.
