About
LoveKnott Creations is a mixed media, fabric sculpture & creative crafting business. I like to make use of Recycling items to create great items.
In my workshops, craft packs & on-line tutorials i make use of a Fabric Hardening Product called Powertex.
​
I am a Certified Powertex Tutor : Fabric Sculpting, Stone Art, Mixed Media & 3D Easy Flex.
​
Powertex is a water-based, Enviornmentally friend, non-toxic, weatherproof Liquid Medium.
​
Powertex works best with 100% Natural fibre materials, and can be used to harden cardboard, hessian, lace, Fabric etc.
​
After 3 weeks drying time the creations can be used to decorate indoors/outdoors.
Adding a bit of pigment powered (mixed with varnish) gives a lovely highlight to your creations. Mixed Media paints, rusty powder, 3D Balls, Acrylic Sprays are also used in the colouring & transformation of any piece.
​
Powertex is very forgiving & accomodating in that pretty much ANYTHING can be Powertex’d, and i have learnt to use all different types of recyclable materials around the house ie: water bottles, wine bottles, old canvas pieces, candle stick holders, rusted garden ornaments, wooden pallet pieces etc. to create some amazing pieces.
​
Once you start you will become quite addicted to the wonders of Powertex.
There is no specific creative talents required....it’s definately worth a try!!
