Cow is neon:

Would you like to craft a cute little cow statue?

For this workshop, a special composite material called Jesmonite will be used. With Jesmonite, you can cast objects, and the drying time is short. So this is a fun and easy way to experience casting.

What is Jesmonite?

Jesmonite is a versatile water based material. With Jesmonite you can easily cast beautiful and unique projects, from jewelry to bowls, from desktops to coasters. Jesmonite is easily workable and can be cast into nearly any shape. Besides that, it’s waterproof, environmentally friendly, and it can be used for inside- and outside projects. It’s safe to use and does not contain any harmful chemicals.

Choosing, mixing, and pouring takes about 20 minutes, after which it will need to dry for 30-40 minutes, after which it can be taken from the mold. Eventually it will take 20 hours to fully harden, but it will be transportable already.

Besides a cow statue, we will also arrange other shapes and bowls.

Price: €5,50
Duration: 15-20 minutes of work | 30 minutes curing time. You can come back later to pick it up rather than waiting.
Difficulty level: Easy
