What Is The Course About?
This one day course will be an overview on how to spot an upcycling project. You will learn what you need to do to transform a small piece of furniture, or upcycle an old lampshade. This could be done by using Chalk Paint, learning how to create a contrasting stencil and transform your upcycling project into something new. Or perhaps you might be interested in learning decoupage to decorate your piece. Your tutor will contact you prior to attending this course to discuss your individual needs and project work. The tutor will also share many tips and useful information for you to continue upcycling further pieces in your own time.
For The Session/s You Will Need:
A pen and pad will be needed. Your project work will be discussed with the tutor beforehand so that you will be given a full list of tools/items to bring with you.
Additional Costs And/Or Resources:
There will be additional costs to be paid depending on the project chosen.
How Will I Know How I Am Getting On?
