About this Event

Concrete is a fluid, versatile, sturdy material, able to take on the shape and texture of whatever mold or formwork it's cast into. In this workshop, candle maker, Nisi Tilmon will demonstrate the steps involved in making custom lightweight planters out of concrete.


CLASS DETAILS

Part I — The first chapter of this hands-on workshop is an introduction to working with cement and an overview of the process of creating the concrete candle vessels/planters. Each participant will go through steps of prepping and setting 2 different vessels. The class runs for approximately 1 hour. You will receive disposable respirator masks. Please feel free to bring your own respirator mask as an added protection.


Once you’ve mastered the basics, mix it up some more with Nisi’s marbling technique. You’ll build a set that’s cohesive as you pour each by hand, though the cement planters all stay beautifully unique. And before you’re done, you’ll also learn how to take your planter designs even further by adding painted patterns.


Part 2 — After the vessels have completely set, you can pick up your vessel at your convenience. When you come by the shop, a host specialist can assist you with a candle making experience for one of your vessels.


This is the perfect craft for the patient maker (make sure to let the cement dry and sealed before using it for candles or plants. This workshop includes: Tools and materials to create concrete pots for your plants or candles.
