AND....

"Clara" and I are getting more organized for the upcoming workshop

WRAPTURE

at Gilding the Lily!


Isn't she sweet? My little Clara antique suitcase is just the perfect size to store my beautiful sari silks, on cabinet cards. It will make it so much fun for you to choose which silks you want to adorn your project with!  Thanks for the idea Diane Cook!! That was just the inspiration I needed.


Thanks for looking.  See you soon.

love and hugs,

Artful Gathering Classes

INTRODUCTION OF 
MY ARTFUL GATHERING CLASSES

Coming this summer...
to a computer near you!

Click the link below and you get to see my smiling face!!


Two classes

1.  Romantic Relic Frames

To read more, please go to Artful Gathering here:

Start with sheet metal, end up with an amazing hand made frame, to cherish forever!  I'll show you every step of the way. Fun, fun, fun!





2.  Over coming the Fear of Fire

Please go here to Artful Gathering and read more about this class.

If you've had the desire to operate your butane torch that has been bought, but hiding in your work area, this is the class for you.  Or maybe you want to use mixed gases in your work, but don't know what to buy?  I hope to answer many of these questions for you in this class, as well as show applicable uses for each torch, as well as safety issues.


Registration is now open for Artful Gathering.

I will be available via email for the entire 6 weeks of each workshop!! So all questions may be addressed as you take the class, very cool!

I hope to see you in class.

Love and hugs,
Riki
