Metal embossed heart workshop
This workshop can be booked on demand for a group of 2 to 4 people in my workshop – please use the button above to request your date. Alternatively, please drop me a line through my contact page.
For larger groups, such as art and craft groups, I can also host this workshop at your own venue. Find out more about group workshops here.
A fun introduction to the art of metal embossing, learning how to make traditional ‘corazones mexicanos’ – Mexican hearts or sacred hearts, based on the Mexican artform of ‘milagritos’ – ‘little miracles’.
We’ll start off the workshop by working on your own heart design, which I will guide you through.
Once your design has been drawn, I will take you through the methods of metal embossing the heart. Once the metal embossing has been finished, we will decorate the heart to create an aged effect and then add colour..
The finished heart can then be used as a wall or window decoration.
This workshop is suitable for beginners.
The workshop takes place at my home workshop just outside Stanley, County Durham. It is a small workshop, so workshop classes are also small, which means you will receive plenty of individual attention.
This workshop will need at least two people booked on it to go ahead.
Please note that my home workshop is accessed by stairs.
Hot drinks and cake will be served during the workshop, please let me know of any dietary requirements when you book.
