Concrete Planter Class
Regular price $55.00
Join us to learn how to create a concrete planter!
In this hands-on workshop you'll learn the steps to mix, cast, and cure concrete in order to create a perfect home for a plant. We'll also review options for adding color, including using paint at the end for making the new pot your own one-of-a-kind creation.
We'll provide all the insider info about different types of cement and concrete available out there and the tips and tricks we've learned to make it work for DIY projects.
And finally, what would a planter be without a plant? You'll choose from an assortment of adorable succulents to plant inside your new concrete creation.
You'll leave the class with a fully finished concrete planter along with care tips for your new plant friend.
All equipment and supplies will be provided.
This workshop is open to ages 10 and over.

teaching artist:
Melinda Prynne is a lifelong creative with extensive practice in painting and creating with the, “I can probably make that!” mindset. She grew up in a small town in Texas where she used her creativity as an outlet to get her through childhood and high school. Afterwards she did some travelling abroad, eventually landing in Portland where everything fell into place. She decided it was time to embrace her creativity by opening up her Etsy store, The Arty Narwhal, and beginning to search for jobs that would embrace her creative side. With a background in teaching combined with her fervent crafting, Assembly is her perfect niche! When Melinda isn’t working on DIY projects and painting, you can find her tending to her plant babies, drinking her weight in tea, and on walks or cuddling her rescue dog, Milk, and her sweet British husband.
