Life's a Beach!

Come on to the Beach and Catch a Wave!


In this easy, fun, workshop, you will make a sandy beach in the morning, complete with shells and rocks and a ripple of water; then in the afternoon, you will make a crashing wave.  In the process, you get to play with all kinds of fun STUFF - Puff Paint, sheer melted fabrics, fabric paints, Angelina fiber, Tintzl, melted painted cellophane and tiny beads.  Come on to the Beach and Catch a Wave!
