Stone-wrapping Workshop
Sat 22 Mar 2025, 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Have you collected a few special stones, or pieces of driftwood from a particular walk or place – mementos connecting you to an event or time?
Bring them along to this workshop and learn how to use cane and some beautiful Japanese wrapping techniques to embellish your chosen pieces.
The workshop will be in three parts, and each week we will focus on a different design.
These 2 hour Saturday morning sessions will be on the 22/03/2025, the 29/03/2025 and the 05/04/2025. Open to non-members.
Event Information
Price: £57
Course Weeks: 3
Room: Spinks Studio
Campaign: Saturday School Spring Term 2025
Customer Information: What you need to bring
A selection of potential items to wrap:
Stones should have flat surfaces and regular (rather than tapering) sides so the cane will grip the edges and not slip.
Wood pieces can be wrapped as they are, or as an addition to a stone.
The items you bring need to be reasonably sized so please be guided by the image above.
