Student showcase: metal embossed coasters – Ellingham Village Hall

ByCrafts for Wellbeing

On Tuesday as part of Highlights Rural Touring Scheme I visited Ellingham Village Hall and taught a fabulous group how to create metal embossed coasters. Everyone took well to learning the techniques, with lots of experimentation going on. They all made beautiful coasters, scroll through the carousel above to see what everyone got up to.

Amazing work, everyone, I loved what you all created.

Thank you so much to Gillian and everyone at Ellingham Village Hall for looking after us so well and for the delicious home made cake!

If you’re interested in learning this technique, I’m running more workshops in conjunction with Highlights Rural Touring Scheme in April and May. Find out more either on my workshop page or on the Highlights website. Hopefully see you on a workshop soon!
