Discover the Art of Marquetry
This month, we’re embracing the time-honoured craft of marquetry—the art of arranging thin layers of wood veneer into intricate, decorative patterns. In this project, you’ll:
-
Cut & Assemble – Learn how to cut the veneer with precision and layer the pieces seamlessly.
-
Experiment with Patterns – Mix and match colours and shapes to create striking contrasts.
-
Add a Metallic Touch – Use your marker to highlight details for a luxurious finish.
Marquetry is a calming, rewarding craft—perfect for slowing down, getting creative, and making something truly unique. Picture a jewellery box that’s not just functional but a miniature work of art—a piece that reflects your personal style and feels extra special because you made it.
Will you go for a sleek geometric pattern, a delicate floral motif, or an abstract design inspired by nature? The warm, natural tones of the veneer combined with a hint of shimmer create a beautiful blend of rustic charm and heirloom elegance.
