Bristol workshop | make your own soap dish from jesmonite

Fancy getting crafty and making your own jesmonite soap dish? If you have a specific colourway for a soap dish in mind, or if you're just curious about how to make things with jesmonite, this in-person workshop is for you!

In this fun and hands-on creative workshop in Bristol, you'll learn how to use jesmonite, which is a strong material made up of mineral powder and resin, with our pre-made soap dish and accessory holder moulds. You'll use pigments to colour the resin and have the option to add jesmonite chips to create a terrazzo effect.

This creative workshop is perfect if you're looking for creative things to do in Bristol. Hosted by Hairy Jayne in our headquarters in Totterdown. 

Keep your creations for yourself or gift them to a lucky loved one. If you'd like to give someone this workshop as a gift, you can purchase a Hairy Jayne gift card and email a note to your recipient with the gift card – they can then use it to book a suitable date.

Your completely unique soap dish and matching accessories will be ready for you to take home straight away. 

You'll leave with:

• a beautiful custom soap dish
