bottle snowman with a little scene in his/her tummy. The Snow Man or Snow Lady
is made using a 93 ounce or 96 ounce bleach bottle. Empty and dried out. They

include everything needed except the bleach bottle and a few basic supplies.
The
little things to go inside will vary and there will be "top" hats or

time we can work in our journals together. If there are new people who want to

7. TITLE OF
CLASS: 6. TITLE OF CLASS:
Decoupage Glass Plates
DESCRIPTION: Decoupage or découpage is the art of decorating an object by gluing colored
paper/fabric cutouts onto it in combination with special paint effects, gold
leaf and other decorative elements. Commonly, an object like a small box or an
item of furniture is covered by cutouts from magazines or from
purpose-manufactured papers.
In this workshop you
will create a decorative plate that can be customized for any holiday or event. It uses a
reverse decoupage technique on the
back of the plate. This allows you to
use the front of the plate for food.
Once you learn this fun
technique it is easy to make special plates for ANY occasion! They also make
wonderful, personalized gifts.
CLASS SIZE:
10 Max.
KIT: No
BRING: A clear
glass plate (Dollar Tree has a good selection). Mod Podge (Your desired finish.
Note: Mod Podge does make a version they say is dish washer safe but I’d still
hand wash the plate). Sponge brush. A fat quarter fabric or small scraps you
wish to use. Pencil. Sharp small scissors. A plastic cutting mat (it makes a
safe place for your plate to dry. Dollar Tree has them). A small plastic bowl
(in which to put the Mod Podge as you work with it). If you are really ambitious, or have several
ideas, bring supplies for more than one plate.

8. TITLE OF CLASS: Fairy Wands
DESCRIPTION:
Let's make more magic on Fairy Tale Friday! It's Tiara Time! The Fairy
Hair Fairy will be here! Who knows - maybe a Prince will show up!
With or without your tiara, we all need
a magic wand. Let's spread wishes! Random acts of kindness! Bonks on the heads
of toads! Make a gift for someone who needs more magic in their life! Let your
inner child out!
This class will have a demo to start us
off. Because drying time is needed for the glitter paint (what's a wand without
glitter?) I’ll show you several ideas
and give you the basic kit and process. Then you will be free to create your
own individual look.
(The photo will be posted to our FB group soon)
CLASS
SIZE: Max. 20
KIT: $5 The kit includes a dowel, two Styrofoam
balls, a corsage pin, a foam brush and access to multiple colors of ribbon,
glitter paint and glue.
BRING: If you want special charms on your
wand, bring them. Special fibers/ribbons will be great – if you have scraps of
eyelash yarn or those ends of specialty threads from embroidery bring them! If
you want to raid the Button Buffet to cover one or both of your balls, that's a
plan! If you want to glue large sequins to your wand, hit up Michael's or Wal-Mart.
There is a lot of room for individuality and creativity here. These make great
stocking stuffers and special gifts!
