About Private Workshop Kits

Private Workshop Kits are designed for makers who want a deeper, more immersive studio experience when making spun cotton creations. Unlike the Open Access Kits, the instruction for these projects is private and available only with the purchase of the kit. Each workshop includes a long-form, in-depth video that is not publicly accessible.

Where Open Access Kits focus on one or two foundational techniques, my Private Workshop Kits explore complete projects in full detail. These workshops go beyond the basics, introducing specialized construction methods, more project-specific materials, and layered finishing techniques drawn directly from my studio practice.

Each Private Workshop Kit available for purchase includes a carefully curated set of materials selected specifically for that project. The instruction and materials are designed together, allowing you to focus fully on learning without substitution or guesswork.

Private Workshop Kits always include:

An in-depth video workshop (2–3+ hours)
Access to a private video that never expires
Advanced and project-specific techniques
A curated supplies kit designed for that workshop
Studio-level guidance on development and finishing

In these Private Workshops, you'll learn how to:

Integrate spinning, sculpting, and forming techniques into complex builds
Create custom elements unique to a single design
Refine form, surface, and proportion for heirloom-quality results
Develop nuanced, timeworn finishes resembling antiques
Work thoughtfully over multiple sessions, just as I do in my own studio

Private Workshop vs. Open Access kits:

If you’re ready for a more focused, guided experience—one that mirrors the way I actually work—Private Workshop Kits offer that depth. They’re ideal for makers who are comfortable with the basics and want to slow down, refine their skills, and complete a single project with care.

If you’re just beginning or prefer a lighter, fully open introduction to the techniques, the Open Access Kits are a natural place to start.
