The finished piece

What you will make

A custom locket pendant — your design, start to finish. You'll press and arrange real dried botanicals, layer in charms, beads, or a birthstone, then seal everything under a resin. Small enough to wear every day, distinctive enough that people notice it.

The experience

1

Browse the materials

Dried florals, foliage, vintage charms, birthstones, seed beads. It's all on the table. Take your time. Nothing is decided yet.

2

Pick your botanicals

Choose the flowers and pressed pieces you want inside your locket. We show you how to arrange them so they look considered, not crowded.

3

Fill the locket

Layer botanicals, charms, and a birthstone if you want one into the locket base. Quiet, focused, satisfying.

4

Seal it

We pour the resin together over your design. It locks in exactly as you left it.

5

Build your chain

While the resin sets, you string your own chain from a selection of coloured beads. The length, the mix, and the look are entirely up to you.

6

Leave wearing it

Your locket is done. Chain on, piece in hand. Ready to wear or give.

Who it's for

Solo guests

Coming alone works well here. The groups are small so you actually talk to people, and the work is absorbing enough that the time goes quickly.

Couples & friends

A good afternoon out. You each make something, you each take it home. No experience needed, no pressure.

Gift-givers

A ticket to this workshop makes a good gift. Something to do together, something to keep at the end.

First-timers

No craft experience needed. We walk you through everything. You just show up.

Open to participants aged 16 and over. Accessibility questions? [email protected]

Common questions

Questions

Absolutely not. The workshop is designed for complete beginners. We walk you through every step, including the resin work, which sounds intimidating but is actually very satisfying once you're doing it.

The resin sets enough to handle before you leave. We time the workshop so your piece is wearable (or giftable) by the end of the session.

We provide a curated selection of dried botanicals, charms, and birthstones on the day. If you have a very specific request, drop us a message before your session and we'll do our best to have it ready.

Especially good, actually. The workshop is structured enough that there's no scary blank-canvas moment — there are beautiful materials in front of you and someone guiding you through it. The 'not crafty' people often make the most interesting lockets.

Maximum 15 guests per session. Small enough that you get proper individual attention, big enough that it has a lovely atmosphere.

The workshop includes one locket. If you'd like to make additional pieces, extra kits can be purchased on the day subject to availability.

Free cancellation up to 48 hours before. Within 48 hours, the booking is non-refundable but can be transferred to another date or given to a friend.

Open to participants aged 16 and over. If you have accessibility questions, reach out to [email protected].
