Feeling a bit nervous about trying something new is completely normal! If you’ve ever worked with glue or mixed ingredients in different cups, you’re already more prepared than you think. Our workshop is designed to guide you step by step, so all you really need is a willingness to experiment and have fun. No prior experience is necessary!

We call it a “project” because each silicone mold is more than just a shape—it’s the foundation for a personalized art piece. In our workshops, you’ll use that mold to create something entirely your own, whether it’s a jewelry holder, keychain, earring set, angel, candle holder, or charcuterie board. From color choices to added elements like glitter or dried flowers, every pour is a one-of-a-kind project you get to take home.

While our expert instructors provide all the guidance and materials needed, the final result depends on the natural curing process of resin and your unique design choices. Please note: The instructor is not responsible for the final outcomes, as every resin piece is inherently unique.

Curing time generally ranges from 12 to 48 hours, depending on your project. Some pieces may require an additional day if an extra clear coat is applied during the follow-up session.

We recommend dressing casually since resin can permanently stain or damage clothing. Wear something comfortable—just as you would for any painting or craft session.

Yes! Children ages 13 and older are welcome when accompanied by an adult. Please ensure that you purchase a ticket for each adult and child attending.

Epoxy resin is our recommended choice for beginners—it’s easy to work with, has little odor, and is less messy compared to other resin types.

All sales are final. If you need to cancel, please call us at least 48 hours before the workshop begins to arrange a makeup date or transfer your ticket to someone else by providing their email and phone number so we can update the registration details. For any further assistance, feel free to contact us at paintingwithresin@gmail.com.

Proper care and maintenance of your resin art pieces and molds are essential to ensure their longevity and beauty. Here are some guidelines to follow: 1. **Cleaning Resin Art Pieces:** Wipe your finished resin pieces with a soft, damp cloth to remove any dust or smudges. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, as these can scratch the resin surface and dull its shine. If your resin art piece includes intricate details or crevices, a gentle brush can help clean those areas without causing damage. 2. **Sunlight and Heat Exposure:** Keep your resin art out of prolonged direct sunlight. Excessive UV exposure can cause the resin to yellow and degrade over time. Additionally, do not place hot items directly on your resin art pieces unless they are specified as heat-resistant. This precaution will prevent any potential warping or softening of the resin. 3. **Maintaining Silicone Molds:** After each use, clean your silicone molds with warm soapy water. I recommend using Dawn dish soap for its effectiveness in removing resin residue without damaging the mold. Ensure that the molds are thoroughly dried before storing them to prevent any mold or mildew growth. By following these care instructions, you can keep your resin creations and molds in excellent condition, preserving the beauty and functionality of your artwork for years to come.

We don’t sell personalized resin coasters online, but you can book a class in Norton, MA, or join an online session to create your own and take them home the same day.

We don’t take commissions. Instead, we provide step-by-step classes so you can learn how to make your own resin art — personalized exactly how you like it.

At Painting With Resin, you won’t buy pre-made coasters — you’ll make them yourself in class. You can also purchase gift certificates so your friends or family can enjoy the experience of creating their own resin art.

Our classes use high-quality epoxy resin, cosmetic-grade glitters, and mica powders. You’ll also get access to seasonal molds (pumpkins, bats, cats, frames, jewelry holders) to shape your project.
