Create your own original artwork in sparkly metallic colours at this printing class in London.



2.5 hours Class size 1 to 6 guests

  £54 - £62 (£62 per guest when you book for 1 guest, £58/guest for 2+ guests, £54/guest for 4+ guests)

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to print with metallic foils using simple techniques that you can easily recreate at home. Whether you choose to work on fabric or paper, you’ll create beautiful, personalised items to take away with you.
On fabric, you can embellish clothing like jeans and t-shirts, cotton bags, cushion covers, or napkins, while on paper, you’ll have the chance to combine foils with collage or pen work to create ready-to-frame artwork, greeting cards, or reference samples showcasing different application methods.
This workshop is perfect for beginners and experienced crafters alike. You’ll experiment with gold, silver, copper, and coloured foils, and Gabriela will guide you through creative techniques like stencilling, stamping, and painting. She’ll also help you design compositions that work beautifully, ensuring you leave with something you’re proud of.
During the session, you’ll explore the versatility of foiling and discover how it can add a stunning touch to your sewing, embroidery, or papercraft projects. By the end, you’ll have not only a selection of beautiful creations but also the skills to continue foiling at home, adding a touch of sparkle to your future projects.
All materials are provided, but if you’d like to work on fabric, feel free to bring your own items to upcycle—flat, non-stretchy fabrics with minimal texture, such as cotton or linen, work best. Rest assured, foiled fabrics are washable, long-lasting, and easy to hand-wash at home.

Recent reviews of Fabric or Paper Printing Class: Metallic Foils

  • 5/5 from Sarah Whitelaw, attended Jul 2026: A very interesting workshop. A small enough group that we could all get the support we needed to progress with the activities. Good to get the notes after the session.
  • 5/5 from Divya Burman, attended Nov 2024: It was a great class Enjoyed and looking for many more classes with Gabriella
  • 5/5 from Swinda Mark, attended Nov 2024: Great workshop. I would definitely recommend this workshop to anyone, even if you do not feel that you are creative or artistic.At the end you will be surprised by your creation. It was very relaxing and I just got into a relaxing zone.In the time I had, I created three pieces, which I have framed and gifting to friends as presents.
  • 5/5 from Marie Bacuvier, attended Mar 2023: I highly enjoyed this great workshop, learning techniques I can repeat at home to personalize beautifully my own stuff. Gabriela is kind and welcoming, and her explanations crystal clear. Her premises are lovely and charming. I would definitively recommend this experience
  • 5/5 from Zan Sum, attended Mar 2023: Learn a lot in making metallic foil prints! really fun experience!
  • 5/5 from Rose Braithwaite, attended Mar 2023: Another great class with Gabriela. We did work on both paper and fabric and the results were brilliant. Gabriella is so generous with her knowledge and I thoroughly enjoyed being creative again.
  • 5/5 from Lauren Fortune, attended Jan 2023: I loved the collage with metallic foils course at Gabriella's beautiful studio - I am a total art amateur and she made everything feel very accessible and creative and fun - great selection of materials, welcoming atmosphere and it was a real treat to spend time thinking visually and creatively. Highly recommend.
  • 5/5 from Ruth Kudzi, attended Dec 2022: A brilliant and fun workshop in a laidback atmosphere, I will be back
  • 4/5 from Alice, attended Nov 2022: I really enjoyed the class with Gabriela. The venue was very comfortable. Gabriela taught the skills very clearly and provided support and ideas. There were lots of options to try out (including different kinds of stencils or making your own) and many colours of foils, so everyone made something different. Gabriela provided more information the day after the class about how to source materials, which was really helpful. Gabriela provides pieces of fabric to print on, but no finished, usable items such as scarves or tote bags. Personally, I think doing so would improve the class - I took my own scarf to work on, which made all the difference. I love the piece I made! I would definitely recommend the class as a way to try out and experiment with a new technique, and take home samples for future inspiration. I think the foiling effect has great impact, and I will definitely use it on fabric projects in future.
  • 5/5 from Annie Birch, attended Jun 2022: Gabriella is always very welcoming. She is also versatile, very experienced in a wide range of artistic media. A rare find!
  • 5/5 from Mita Mandal, attended Jan 2022: Gabriela was very welcoming. Her knowledge about the subject is very good. Her way of teaching is excellent and clears all the doubt. I would love to attend more classes with her in near future.
  • 5/5 from Linda Stradling, attended Jan 2022: The class yesterday was brilliant! Only four of us so lots of one-to-one help and the results - foil printed fabric - is beautiful. It's so nice to sit peacefully and play around with glue and scissors and forget the clamour for three hours!Much recommended.
  • 5/5 from Gregor Thomson, attended Dec 2021: A fantastic class with Gabriela. When we arrived she made us all feel comfortable and welcome. Before we started working on our own pieces, she showed us some of the work of people who had done the class before which really helped us to understand what was possible. Throughout the morning, Gabriela answered our questions and helped us feel empowered to fulfil our creative visions. Altogether, it was a wonderful class!
  • 5/5 from Katie Gerald, attended Dec 2021: A superb introduction to gold leafing on paper and a taster on fabrics! I am thrilled with what I learnt created and can take on as my tool box to add to other creative talents I want to combine it with. Gabrielas studio is so calm & creative with wonderful teaching and materials to use.

Gabriela is an artist and maker. She creates pictures, decorative objects, greeting cards and jewellery with images inspired by memory, nostalgia and a love of everything vintage.
Her work is often humorous and whimsical – unless her romantic side takes over and then you enter into a fairy-tale territory of old-fashioned script, pages of books and music scores populated by chivalrous gentlemen, glamorous ladies, butterflies and rabbits. She blends a fusion of painting and digital media – acrylic, watercolour and ink with digital print – onto paper and canvas to create a wide range of work.
In addition to her own creative endeavours, she is passionate about inspiring other people and sharing her skills, so she devotes a good portion of her time to teaching.
