Gilding Workshop
Discover the art of traditional metal leaf gilding and transform everyday objects with gold leaf. The workshop will take place at our studio in Cliftonville and is limited to 4 people.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to apply imitation gold leaf to a variety of surfaces, along with techniques for sealing and protecting your work with varnish. Carrie will guide you through each step, sharing her practical approach to achieving a smooth, professional finish.
You’re welcome to bring your own piece to transform, or choose from a curated selection of decorative objects available on the day. If you plan to bring something from home, feel free to send a photo in advance so we can check it’s suitable. We recommend avoiding anything too precious.
Workshops are kept small to ensure a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Tea, coffee, and biscuits are provided. No previous experience is needed and all materials are provided.

“The pieces we created were genuinely beautiful and felt really special to take away. Everyone left feeling inspired, proud of what they’d made, and noticeably uplifted.” – Camille, Walnut Gilding Workshop attendee
