VIC: Resin art workshop

‘I had so much fun at the resin art class. We got taught everything we’d need to know to get started including the safety aspects of resin. Our teacher was enthusiastic and helped with all of our questions. We got full access to all the colours and pigments we could hope for and if there was a colour missing that we wanted, she would go next door to the shop to get it.
