Class: Banner Day with Annie Onderdonk

Join Annie Saturday morning and turn an everyday household item into something special.  She'll show you how to transform a very humble yardstick into a Celebration of Summer with the addition of ribbons, rosettes, and colorful graphic images.  Adorn a wall, a windowsill, a doorway, even a headboard...perfect for any space that might benefit from an injection of pure, blissful color, the choice is yours.  This project also lends itself very well to other seasons.  Perhaps Annie can be convinced to recreate this class as an ode to Halloween, Christmas or any other holiday that could use a little cheer.

July 16th, Saturday:  10:00am - 12:00pm (class fee is $30.00)     

Class: Gypsy Memo Collage w/ Annie Onderdonk

Join Annie this Saturday for a day filled with creative inspiration.  Annie begins the morning session by sharing her techniques for creating her gorgeous painted backgrounds.  The colors are sumptuous and pop against the graphic collage images creating a breathtaking art piece you will be proud to display.  The morning session is followed by a lunch break and the afternoon takes up where the first session left off.  Annie will hand out the fabulous 7 Gypsies Memo Boards and show you how to complete the magic by assembling your collage.  You may finish by 2pm, but Annie and the shop space are available until 4pm.  Annie will provide the memo board, paper, collage media, charms and chotchkies.  Be sure to bring your class kit, a water brush and / or a paint brush, and any coloring medium you like to work with...inks, watercolors, watercolor pencils, etc.  You will need Portfolio Oil Pastels; these can be found at Staples, Office Max, etc. in the art aisle and are priced below $10.00 a set.

Class: Castle Workshop with Annie Onderdonk

Join Annie Saturday morning for an organic collage workshop featuring a bookboard castle kit. Annie will bring some beautiful papers and findings to get you started. It is a workshop, however, and you may opt to add photos to create a special memory keepsake, or favorite fabric swatches and special ephemera for a one-of- kind idea book. You may even want to create little vignettes with each page suitable for framing. The options are endless and the end results are only limited to your imagination. You'll begin the book in class and take it home to add the finishing touches that bring it to life and make it your own creation.

Space is limited, so contact Nancy as soon as possible to sign up for this class.

August 21st, Saturday: 10:00am - 12:30pm (class fee of $30.00 includes the bookboard castle kit)
