Goblets - Online Fabric Sculpting Workshop by Curiously Contrary

Description

Learn how to create stunning goblets using fabric sculpting techniques. Use any shaped drinking glass as your base and create three dimensional textures using fabric and a fabric hardener. The finished result will be a fully usable drinking vessel which is water resistant and can be handwashed gently (Not suitable for the dishwasher or for soaking). In this online workshop you will learn how to work with different fabrics and embellishments to create a three dimensional design on your glasses. This project can be completed using any of the fabric hardeners that are available, i.e. Powertex, Paverpol, Sculptin. I will then teach you my own colouring technique which will allow you to really enhance the detail and textures using colours and shading. This online workshop is presented as a series of video tutorials which you will have unlimited access to through my online school. You can access the workshop at any time and as often as you like. The workshop also includes additional information resources and a tips, tricks and troubleshooting section. When you buy my Goblet Workshop you will also get free access to my Bottle Collar Workshop allowing you to create a matching set with your goblets. Once you have purchased this workshop, you will be contacted with details of how to access the workshop.

Message the tutor

Join artist and creative tutor, Abigail Lagden, to discover the delights of fabric sculpting. This rather fun and messy craft involves working with fabrics and a fabric hardener to create pieces which are full of intriguing texture and depth. Abigail has a fascination of all things magical and mythical and this certainly creeps out in most of her pieces, bringing a sense of fantasy and fun which also spills into her workshops.
