I hope you love this new class as much as I do! In a recent survey, you told us you wanted a sign making class. You also said, you’d like a Friday night class. Guess what? It’s here! I think this sign would make a wonderful holiday, wedding, anniversary, or house-warming gift! Don’t you? Robin, one of our vendors and a true craft-aholic, is a master of the Silhouette Cameo stenciling system. Diane, who’s had the pleasure of making our stencils, in the past, has learned boatloads from Robin, about this machine. Robin was in the shop Saturday, creating one…

This Saturday, we’ll host our first Image Transfer class, using Amy Howard’s Copy Cat. What I like about this product, is that you can use it with both ink jet and laser jet prints. In the past, other products have required laser prints. Since I don’t have a laser printer at the shop, this caused me to go else where, in search of a laser printer. Bummer. It’s really a lot of fun! You can use the product on fabric, wood or canvases, as we’ll do on Saturday. Students will create three transferred image canvases that they’ll be able to…

Greetings, friends, As you may know, I love traveling around Europe and seeing the world. Mr. Wonderful doesn’t share this interest, so for the last ten years, I’ve been traveling with small groups of like-minded women, every couple of years. This time, I decided to travel with a guide, Jennette, who would show me the flea markets of France. Since the Paris markets are rather pricey, we opted for traveling around central France, in Montmorrillon. While shopping and shipping furniture home is very expensive, I’m not going that route. At least not yet! Believe me, I was very tempted! This…
