About this Event
Saturday, August 15th | Workshops from 12:00 PM–7:30 PM
Hill House Parlor | Salem, Massachusetts
Step into a world where beauty meets the macabre and create one-of-a-kind resin art inspired by nature, folklore, oddities, and curiosity.
The Dead Moon Studio returns to Hill House Parlor for a full day of Bones & Beauty resin workshops, with four sessions and two different crafting experiences to choose from. Create a decorative resin magnet during one of our afternoon sessions, design a wearable necklace or ring, or book both experiences for an entire day of gothic creativity.
Each intimate, 90-minute workshop will guide you through the resin-making process from beginning to end. You’ll explore the materials being used, learn helpful tips and techniques for working with UV resin, and watch a step-by-step demonstration before creating a completely unique piece of your own.
No prior resin-making or jewelry-making experience is necessary. All tools, supplies, specimens, and decorative materials will be provided.
