My 'Get Creative With Gold leaf' course

If you enjoy getting creative with your interior decor, upcycling furniture, would like to learn a new craft or just want to make thoughtful, handmade gifts and cards for family and friends, this course is perfect for you. 

​

There is no minimum skill level required and the course is suitable for all abilities. A benefit to the course being online is that you can take your time, practice and re-watch as many times as you like, and if you get really stuck you can contact me for help. Excluding the Christmas section, the course will take approx 3 hours to complete, scroll down for course breakdown.

Have you got everything you need?

You may already have some of the materials you need, such as small paint brushes for the adhesive etc, so you may wish to buy just a few materials individually to complete the course. However to save you time I have collaborated with Gold Leaf Supplies to put together a kit that includes gold leaf, adhesive, brushes, gloves, in fact everything you need to do the course and carry on gold leafing at home.
