Julie Haymaker- Shrinkets!!!

OMG!  Do you remember shrinky dinks?  I do.  I loved them and apparently still do.  Julie Haymaker is an amazing mixed media artist who specializes in shrinky fun!  Imagine this, trace a pattern on thin plastic, color it with colored pencils or markers, shrink it and magic happens.  I’m all over these flowers for future needlepoint canvases.  Won’t that be fun.

Join us for crafty days and leave with your projects finished. Well, you can if we don’t goof off too much.

Friday August 10, 11-5:30 pm  Pinwheel Dreams Necklace

Celebrate the end of Summer with a pretty new necklace.  Mix hand hammered metal, wrapped wire and shrink plastic flowers formed with molds.  How fun is this?

Friday Evening August 10, 6-9 pm  Ruby Hearts

Create a light weight elegant and romantic shrink plastic bracelet using Shrinkets opulent shrink plastic, stamps and inks.  Combine your hearts with supplied pre hand-wired beaded dangles and heart charms on an open link bracelet.

Saturday August 11, 11-5:30 pm  Wearing Wonderland Bracelet

I’m in love with this bracelet.  First of all I love charm bracelets.  Second of all, I can see using these same flowers on a needlepoint canvas.  How cool is that???

We will form shrink plastic into flowers and leaves using molds!  Trace, color, cut and heat.  Violá.

Each kit will include 10 hand wire wrapped beaded charms (without shrink plastic beads) along with all the tools and materials to make a complete bracelet.

Sunday August 12, 11-5:30 pm  Queen of the Night

Sometimes it’s fun to do something entirely different.  Here’s your chance.  Join us for a day of happiness creating the Queen of the Night.  Julie says she is a moth, but I prefer to think of her as a bee.  🙂

I hope you can join us for one or more days.  We always have such a good time.  Deposits are required at signup with balance due one month before class.
