Gilded Shoes Christmas Workshop - Upcycle Your Footwear!

Welcome to the Gilded Shoes Christmas Workshop - Upcycle Your Footwear!

Bring a pair of shoes or boots you'd like to transform and spend a relaxed three hours gilding, upcycling and making them look incredible using metallic leaf!

I'll talk you through every step - from prepping the surface, applying adhesive, using the leaf and sealing to finish. It's easier than you think, really satisfying and the results are always gorgeous.

Choose up to two colours of metallic leaf from the list below:

Bright Gold, Light Gold, Copper, Silver, Bright Pink, Lilac, Purple, Red, Blue, Green.

Perfect for refreshing old shoes, adding a bit of shine or creating something special for winter nights out.

What's Included:

• All metallic leaf, brushes, adhesive, sealant
• Use of two colours of leaf
• Hot drinks throughout
• Free Parking
• A calm, creative space
• Step-by-step guidance
• Time to make something you'll be proud to wear

What to bring:

• A pair of shoes/boots you'd like to transform (leather, faux leather or patent).

What to wear:

• You might end up with a bit of metallic leaf on your hands or clothes while your working, so it's best to avoid wearing you favourite Christmas jumper. Nothing messy - just a little sparkle here and there!

Who's it for?

Anyone who fancies a cosy creative activity away from the hustle and bustle.

No experience needed - complete beginners are absolutely welcome.

You'll leave with:

• A fully gilded pair of shoes or boots with your own design.
• A pot of sealant and brush for application
• Mini gilding top-up kit
