Student Showcase: Metal embossed house number workshop

ByCrafts for Wellbeing

Here are the three fabulous copper house numbers that were made on my metal embossed house number workshop today.

I had a great afternoon teaching three lovely people how to emboss metal, and they all created amazing pieces. They were all complete beginners to metal embossing before the workshop.

As you can see they all made fabulous house numbers and there will be some smart house fronts in the north east of England very soon!

Well done everyone, I love all of your pieces.

If you would like to make your own copper house number, then I have one space left on my house number workshop on 17th December, you’ll find more details here.
