Class Descriptions and Artist Information:

 

 

 

Sugarville "Home Sweet Home" Wreath by Amy Powers

Come on a little journey with me to a sweet little town called Sugarville. We'll create your very own property, glitter it in true Sugarville style, and make it the center of a very special flowerful glittery wreath. Add a little bluebird of happiness and a banner declaring "home sweet home" and you have a perfect accessory for your home.

 

 

 

Amy Powers lives a sweet little life, dividing her time between her newfound life as a foster mom and making adorable things. She keeps folks abreast of the goings on in her life through her well-read blog, InspireCo. Amy delights in meeting new people, discovering and adventuring. Her favorite color is pink and she is a great storyteller. And even though she's 38 years old, she still remembers precisely what it felt like to be six and a half.

 

 

 

Les Belles Fleur Chandelier by Kristen Robinson

Once upon time the May Pole was a common element used to celebrate the beauty of spring; while most of us cannot place a May Pole in our homes we can hang a lovely chandelier reminiscent of days past. Les Belles Fleurs is full of delightful elements that will definitely add joy and bliss to your days. A bit of vintage paper, tulle, rosary chain and French post cards twirl aside paper flowers, pennants created from French documents and ribbons. In this class we will construct a non-illuminated chandelier that is filled with delightful images, textiles and shimmer; elements that are perfect to greet spring and summer. All supplies that are needed to create this magical center piece are included.

 

 

 

Kristen Robinson is a Mixed Media Artist and Writer residing in Southern California with her husband and son. Imagination rules her creativity. Kristen has a great love for sharing her passion of all things historical and charming. She teaches both locally and nationally. Kristen is a Director’s Circle Artist for Stampington & Co. as well as a Bonnes Vivantes for Somerset Life. Visit her as she travels on her artistic journey at kristenrobinson.typepad.com.

 

 

Pique Assiette Box by Michelle Legler

Come break china with me and create your own one~of~a~kind Pique Assiette Box. We will use broken china, vintage jewelry, beads and any other doo~dads that you bring along. Scrounge through your drawers, closets and jewelry boxes for your broken jewelry, grandma’s broken china plate that you just couldn’t throw away, or grandpa’s old non-working watch. The possibilities are endless and the process of combining your personal treasures into a piece of beautiful art is magical.

 

 

 

Michelle Legler is a mosaic artist living in Arizona. She is the mother of 4 beautiful daughters, 2 chunky pugs and wife to a loving husband. She is obsessed with gardening, decorating and recycling junque into beautiful works of art……especially cast off china! Her mosaic cupcakes have been the most popular item as of yet. So much so, that she’s pretty sure she could make them with her eyes closed. You can follow her sometimes “crazy” life at mosaicqueen.typepad.com or visit her at mosaiccottage.com
