Classes and Workshops

Here is a quick overview of classes that I plan to offer. 

Junk Journals

Junk journals are created with recycled materials. Junk journals contain a bit of everything from paper and window screens, to envelopes and fabric scraps. Junk journals are a great way to keep junk out of the landfills and give them a new purpose.

Junk journals can be used for many different purposes; as a mini scrapbook, writing journal, art journal, planner, list keeper, etc. The uses are only limited by your imagination!

Adult Class- 12+

Kids Class- 5+ (adult assistance will be required).

Altered Journals

Altered journals are created from books that are no longer wanted or needed. Hardcover works best, but some sturdy soft covers work well also. Pages are painted, colored, torn out, added in, collaged, and generally altered in some artistic way. Some can be altered just enough that you can use them as writing journals, or each page can be a creative explosion of art. Once again, you are only limited by your imagination here. And, if you are like me and sometimes your imagination fails you, the internet is full of inspiration!

Altered journals can be a great gift created for someone else, or a wonderful book of creative and artistic memories for you to add to your personal library.

Adult Class- 16+

Kids Class- 5+ (adult assistance will be required.

Paper People

Paper people are created using recycled papers and other new, recycled, or upcycled materials. Create them as fancy or nonchalant as you wish. Paper princesses or paper paupers; paper cowgirls or paper ballerinas; the choice is yours! Fill up an altered journal or a junk journal with them!

Paper people can be used for cards, journals, paper dress up dolls, or any other fun project that requires people made out of paper!

16+

Freezer Paper Stenciling

A great way to add some excitement to your wardrobe! With the use of freezer paper, and iron and some paint, we can make the old new again.
