In this workshop you'll learn to print with metallic foils, using simple techniques that you can easily repeat at home.
Two options are available: you can work either on fabric or on paper.

All materials are included but if you choose to work on fabric, you may want to bring your own items to be upcycled: foiling works well on clothing such as jeans and t-shirts, cotton bags, cushion covers, napkins. Flat, non-stretchy fabrics with as little texture as possible work best. Foiled fabrics are washable, long-lasting and very easy to hand-make at home. It's also a stunning way to embellish your sewing and embroidery work.

If you prefer to work on paper you’ll have the option of combinign foils with collage or pen work, and create your own  ready-to-frame pictures, greeting cards and/or reference samples showing the different application methods.

You will be able to experiment with gold, silver, copper and coloured foils, and Gabriela will show how to use these creatively through stencilling, stamping and painting. As well as guiding you through the technical process, she will help you design compositions that work.

This craft workshop is ideal for beginners and the more experienced crafter or artist who wants to add a new technique to their repertoire. Everything taught can be repeated at home so get ready to be inspired!
