About this Event
🍀 Cast Your Own Lucky Pewter Shamrock/Clover Coin or Pendant
Create a one-of-a-kind lucky charm just in time for St. Patrick’s Day!
In this hands-on class, participants will start with polymer clay shamrocks, customizing their design with initials, Lucky 7s, or other creative additives. Once your design is complete, you’ll bake it with a backing, create a silicone mold, and then cast your piece in pewter.
By the end of the class, you’ll walk away with your own lucky pocket coin or wearable pendant—designed and cast entirely by you.
What you’ll learn and do:
- Customize polymer clay shamrock designs
- Create a silicone mold
- Cast pewter safely and successfully
- Finish your piece for wearing or carrying
🍀 A fun, festive introduction to metal casting with a lucky twist!
Final Product will vary from image!
No prior experience is necessary—just bring your creativity.
All tools and materials are provided.
Please wear natural fibers, close-toed shoes, full length pants, and have any long hair pulled back. If you would like to bring your own safety glasses you may; otherwise, we will have extras here.
