When you emboss metal, you participate in an art form that has existed for centuries. Metal embossing is used to impart a design upon metal sheets. The metal is pushed with an embossing tool or stylus in order to create a raised effect on the opposite side. By placing the metal sheet on a rubber or foam pad, the positive impression has a smooth surface that will shine or can take pigment. You will be provided with everything to make 1 of 6 heart designs by tracing the pattern then transferring this onto the metal. I will then guide you on how to get the 3D effect and the vintage look. With free parking at Chataways Tea Room & Shop, a delicious piece of cake and a drink of your choice and all the materials you need, this is a fantastic Workshop at just £35

Learn a lifelong skill and create the perfect handmade gift for family, friends or yourself, or just come along for some painting fun.

All materials will be supplied for you to use on the day with refreshments available to make the Workshop even more extra special. Free parking right outside, toilets available. Absolutely no artistic experience is required as a template is used to create the basic design. We will practice first before going onto the real thing. A ‘round’ brush, a ‘liner’ brush and a ‘dotting tool’ are used and you will also learn the technique ‘tipping’ to create two colours on your brush at the same time. I guarantee you will say ‘I can’t believe I’ve just done that!’ everyone does!!! Look forward to seeing you at the beginning of your ‘Folk It’ journey.
