Keeper of Secrets & Dreams - We will be creating our own little keeper of secrets and dreams in this class by altering and aging a tin with vintage images or tin types, ephemera, mica and findings. Then we will create the perfect little secret and dream journal with pages of paper, fabric, decorative stitching and lace to be tucked inside.

The Altered Wrist - Don’t you love vintage clothes? The small little details and romantic feel of them? That feeling is what we will be capturing in this class as we create beautiful mixed media cuffs for you to wear or give as gifts. No matter what your style, from romantic to vintage to goth, these cuffs are a wonderful way to wear your art on your wrist. We will be creating collages using ephemera, tape transfers (taught in class), rubber stamping, words and other embellishments. This little collage will then be scanned, printed out and transferred to fabric and then sewn onto your cuff and further adorned with lace, buttons, charms and mor.
