(my fonts & point sizes are totally wonked out... so sorry!)


Session One:

A Charmed Life Bracelet
with Michelle Geller
1pm-4pm

$60

Using basic jewelry-making techniques, you will create a unique,

fun and personalized charm bracelet full of vintage items and found

objects. This bracelet is sure to be a conversation starter and will

be an attention getter every time you move your wrist and it makes

that glorious jingly jangly noise!

You will learn basic wire wrapping techniques as well as a few

tips and ideas to turn random, found objects into perfect charms.

The class kit is packed with everything you will
need to make your charm bracelet:

A chain, clasp, jump rings, headpins, vintage charms,

beads, and a collection of vintage and otherwise found objects

pre-punched and ready to be turned in to charms!
(OMgoodness! this is going to be such a great class!)

when you sign up for the class i will send you
a list of supplies that you will need to bring (nothing too crazy :)

An add on kit with charms will be available to purchase.
It includes a vintage small skeleton key, license fob,
and a soldered domino for $12.

Space is limited to 12

Session Two:

Me & My Shadow Box with Jill
5pm-8pm
$40

Inspired by our amazing friend, Ali,
Jill has designed a sweet shadow box
filled with little treasures & family memories...
Jill will provide a kit filled with gorgeous papers,
buttons, a gorgeous key
a vintage anagram letter representative of your last name
& other wonderful items...
seriously beautiful!

You will need to bring your own printers tray or shadow box–
is doesn’t matter how many slots or how big –

Then on Sunday you’ll get to hunt for other little items
that represent your family to put in other pockets of your shadow box.
(i loooove finding those cute little sweeties!)

Space is limited to 12

Sunday will be our 3rd annual
field trip to the Coburg Antique Fair

We will meet at our usual crazy vintage shopper time of 5am
with our coffee & flashlights :)

This is always such a fun bonding experience...
(5am shopping...how can you not bond?)
