Crafting Ornaments and Gifts for You, Your Family and Friends
with Suzie O'Clair
$15
Crafting ornaments and gifts can be fun to do whether you are a crafty person or not, it’s easy. They make great gifts and have more meaning because they were made by you! Whether they’re glittery, colorful or simple scenes, each one is unique and reflects the joy with which they are made. It is your chance to repurpose ornaments or decorations from wreaths, to use lace, buttons, ribbon, shells, dried flowers, pinecones, potpourri, glitter, paint, old man’s beard and/or lichen from trees, wooden forms, sticks and/or beads by working with scissors, paint brushes and glue. Give it a try, have fun – you’ll be surprised what you can do.
Instructor: Suzie O'Clair has been making different crafting ornaments and gifts for presents for family and friends for years. She's done this while experimenting with different mediums – glass, plastic, felt and wood – using ribbons, glitter, acrylic paint, natural items such as pinecones and moss, and various other things found around her home.
