Hanging Window Workshop - an innovative Christmas Decoration

X

Description

See how the lights shine through the Hanging Window decoration. Why restrict to windows, when there are so many places you could hang such a lovely piece of craftwork? Participants will make one Hanging Window as a tutor-led group activity during the session. Such a small group allows everyone to receive almost individual tuition and all abilities are catered for. If anyone wishes to stay on after the hour is over, and make more flowers, or even a different flower, this can be arranged on the day. Resin Dip is totally safe, non toxic, and not known to cause allergies (unless you are allergic to nail varnish). As with all liquids containing dyes, participants are advised to wear appropriate clothing.

What's included in the price?

All materials needed including resin, wire, stamens or beads. All necessary tools and equipment.

FAQs

The most common Shaper Tool to use when making flowers is the Black Shaper Tool. One 125ml tin of Resin Dip contains enough resin to make 366 (approx) petals using the Black Shaper Tool. For example, in the Daffodil Kit there are 3 tins of resin - one for the yellow outer petals, one for the orange inner trumpet, and one for leaves. It is possible therefore to make approx 70 daffodils and have orange and green resin left over to make other flowers!

The resin is weatherproof, although we have wreaths etc that have been in the snow, we cannot guarantee them from severe weather. We supply Stainless Steel wire which will not rust for some outdoor kits.

Literally minutes. Within 2-3 minutes you can handle the petals you have created and adjust them to make the flower the shape you want it to be. However the flower will continue to dry over the next 24 hours and you may see differences in the colour of the newly dipped and the finally dry flower.

Clean it up as quickly as possible as the dyes in the resin may stain. If you get it on your skin, either wash off immediately or leave it to dry and you should be able to peel it off quite easily (like nail varnish); if on clothing, again wash as soon as possible but it may stain. Inion Arts do sell thinners which may help to remove stains.

Yes, perfectly safe. There is a slight smell similar to nail varnish, and it is not advisable to work in a confined, ill-ventilated area but there is no need for any special equipment or clothing. It is not toxic (although not recommended to ingest!) and we have yet to find anyone who has had an allergic reaction to it.

In most cases, yes, but please do message us with your particular needs so we can discuss these further.

This is a very select group of between 2 - 6 people, so there will be lots of individual attention and help.

Yes - but the more experienced can make Resin Dip flowers to suit their own levels

Yes
