I'm thrilled to report that I will be teaching a workshop next month
at the venerable Tinsel Trading Company in NYC!
Since summer is right around the corner
I thought it would be fun to work with beach-themed materials,
such as seastars and shells, and add a touch of GLITTER, of course!
We will be using Tinsel Trading Company's
exclusive imported German glass glitter...(yippeee!!!)...
which sparkles like no other glitter!
Voila! "A day at the beach..."
We will be crafting a 9 ' glittered seastar garland
which can be draped across a mantle, strung up over a door or window
or used as a table runner.
I made glittery polka dots and stripes on these seastars
to make them even more whimsical,
then strung them up on 2" pale aqua May Arts organza ribbon
...sigh...
I can feel the sand in my toes already...
We will also craft an individual ornament,
either a seastar on hand-forged hook
(which I will also teach you how to make),
or a crab or seahorse, your choice.
The latter will be strung up on seam binding.
These make a great hostess gift
and look wonderful tacked up on a memo board,
and don't forget to hang them on your tree or mantle for the holidays.
Finally, we will make some adorable gift tags
using punched out shapes of beautiful card stock,
and embellish them with glitter, shells, flowers, leaves
and of course, some of Tinsel Trading Company's legendary trimmings.
So slip on your flip-flops and join me
