Sand Symbol Shop 

 

10% off your first order in May


We have a variety of miniatures and symbols that are perfect for the Play Therapists / Sandplay Therapists / Creative Counsellor's toolkit 


These items have been made because of their symbolic value in therapy, their creative use of metaphor, they are usually difficult to source or are just fun to make! 


All symbols are hand made and most are made to order (although we do keep a small amount of ready-made items in stock) 


The miniatures are often made of either resin, polymer clay or stone powder.


NOTE:

DUE TO COVID-19, ITEMS ARE BEING DISPATCHED ONCE A WEEK 

 

Sand Symbol Making Day

 

Are you always on the lookout for the 'perfect miniature?' Do you ever feel jealous of other Therapists symbol collection?  Do you wish you could expand your collection but can't find or afford the items you want?


Why not create your own? 


During this 5-hour interactive workshop, you will create a treasure chest of symbols that you can integrate into your toolkit:


  • Use polymer clay to make your own element symbols and learn why the 4 elements (earth, air, fire & water) are essential for a Therapist's toolkit
  • Create hand-painted mandala domes 
  • Design your own inspirational stones and story rocks
  • Decorate glass jewels and gems 
  • Decoupage a treasure chest to hold all your newly created symbols 


NOTE:

DUE TO COVID-19 THIS WORKSHOP IS ON HOLD UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
