What Do We Do in the Workshop?
In the workshop, we dive into the world of decorative concrete and modern design:
- Learn to prepare the perfect concrete mixture (gray or white cement).
- Add pigments and create personal color combinations.
- Work with professional molds: candle holders, vases, boxes, trays, home jewelry, and more.
- Find the largest selection of silicone molds in the country, including unique molds designed by us: a Hanukkah menorah, mezuzah cases, and more.
- Discover all the secrets: proper vibration, removing bubbles, and precise, clean filling.
- Make 3–4 pieces (depending on the shape and size of the molds chosen).
- Each participant goes through the entire process—from the dry materials to the final casting.
