Working with Soapstone: Carve Your Own Pendant

  • Workshop
  • Activity

Soapstone is a very soft, porous, metamorphic rock that can be carved to make jewellery.

Working with pre-cut blanks, your teacher Brittany will show you how to carve soapstone into a wearable pendant or pair of earrings. Because soapstone is so porous you can also colour it to enhance your design. During class you will have time to carve a few pieces, followed by an optional chance to colour your soapstone with watercolours.

Each step of the way will have a demonstration, from designing to carving, colouring, and putting the final touches on to make your pendant a necklace. 


All materials are included.
