Full house on Brookdale Lane....

Many thanks to Nancy and Mr. Jamar for opening up a new space.  The new location for workshops through Gilding the Lily has lots more room as you can see (13 students showed up!).    It's only 3 blocks from the store and Nancy gives participating students a week before class to come into the Lily and get a 15% discount and opens early for students to buy before class. 

All my students are amazing artists and I REALLY hope you all see this post and send a picture of what you made so I can post them.  They were all so individual and beautiful and some of you left before I could take pictures.  Thank you all for having a sense of humor and hanging in there with only one hole punch!!  I think I'll do like Lisa said and have a few for sale next time.   Next up at the Lily:  CAGED VIXEN.  You won't want to miss it!  Mark you calendars for March 12th, 11-3p for a  BRAND NEW class and learn how to make a bird cage out of wire and capture your inner vixen!  SO cute!   Samples are in the store.   Details to follow SOON!

Another version...

For this Saturdays class at Gilding the Lily I thought I would make another version so you could see the diversity.  This is a heart but what about a house or bird?  So many possibilities.  Hope to see you there!
