Learn how to create your own cornicello out of wax while learning about its significance in Sicilian history.

Learn how to create your own cornicello out of wax in the lost wax-casting style of jewelry making, while learning about the object's significance in Sicilian history.

In this two-hour workshop, you'll learn about the tools and the process with plenty of time to create your own unique wax mold cornicello. They make for great pendants and keychains!

Your mold will need to be cast in brass as a second step, and your pieces will be shipped to you two weeks after the workshop. Your casting costs are included in the ticket price.

This workshop is in collaboration with (and was the brainchild of) Lindsay Marie Morris, the Sicilian American author of The Last Letter from Sicily and Beneath the Sicilian Stars, which were both released by Storm Publishing in 2025.

Lindsay will begin the class by speaking on this iconic Italian horn-shaped amulet, believed to ward off il malocchio (the evil eye) and shield wearers from negativity and misfortune. Then, she will read from Beneath the Sicilian Stars, which prominently features this precious object and its own incredible journey.

All tools and materials are provided, and no experience is necessary.
