About This Adventure
#About
Enroll in and create your own unique Masterpiece with lacy ocean waves. You will have fun creating your own epoxy resin-coated Serving tray table or Lazy Susan turntable.
Everyone will make their own impressive conversation piece that can be added to their home decor or possibly wrap it up to give as a homemade gift. After this workshop, you will have more confidence and skills to coat with epoxy resin, and walk away with your own one-of-a-kind gorgeous creation!
What's covered in the course:
In this 1.5 hour workshop, you'll be working with a slow curing epoxy resin.
We'll cover: gloves , aprons, and other PPE included safety and preparation tips:

What you'll make:
You'll make a choice of serving tray table or lazy susan (feel free to bring your own style of tray/lazy susan you want to display in your house). Your serving ware set will take 24 hours to cure and will be ready for collection the next day.
What instruction you'll receive:
