2025 Events & Workshops

2025, Here We Come!

I can’t believe it’s been three years since I took the leap and launched my small business full-time! It has been an incredible journey traveling across Ontario, sharing my handmade resin creations through *Studio by Tara*. 

This year, I’m excited to continue exploring local markets and connecting with all of you. From glittery keychains and delicate floral necklaces to beach-inspired home décor, artisanal charcuterie boards, and abstract paintings, my collection keeps growing! 

I’m also thrilled to announce that I’ll be adding workshops this year! Whether you’re a beginner or looking to refine your skills, these hands-on sessions will be a fun way to create your own unique resin art. Stay tuned for dates and details! 

Here’s to another amazing year of art, adventure, and community—I can’t wait to see where 2025 takes us!
