This is a 2-week Teen class: July 7 & 14. (includes ages-children 10-18) Add’l 10% Teen discount with coupon code “teen-paper” for teen members or members registering their teen.

Crafting a Collage with your own hand-made Paper Participants will make their own paper with different colors and textures and create a paper collage or 3-D sculpture using their hand-made paper.

We will be using organic materials, sticks, flowers, glitter, and other dry items to customize your paper. With the paper, you will craft a 3-D wall hanging collage.

For those who want to be a bit craftier, you can make a paper vase for dried flowers or a 3-D model.

The course is designed for beginners who have never made paper before. Others are welcome.

Come with an abstract idea of shapes and colors or a picture of your favorite simple landscape. Let’s have some fun and make art!

See papermaking supply list that you may bring to customize your own paper.
