Mini Workshop Series
Mark your calendars for August 1st and 2nd to join me in a weekend full of fun and information. This is your opportunity to learn and experiment with all the different products you have heard and read about. All work will be done on scrap pieces of gourd as the goal of these workshops is not a finished piece but learning how to use the different products. This will give you the confidence and knowledge to use these products. Preregistration will be required, take all or which ever workshops you like and don't forget space is limited. These workshops are closely timed and it is imperative that they start and end on time. Remember, all you will have to pay will be the cost of products which will range from $7.00 to $10.00 per mini workshop. More info on this page
