Our very first TWEEN workshop started today! These young teens were more than eager to get started on their projects!
Originally, we were planning on building one art book that can be a place for photos and mementos. Instead we're making several books! Our first book was made from scratch using the art dolls created by Julie Nutting. We made front and back covers and inside pages. We added fun strips of fabric and tied them on two rings. They turned out adorable!
We continued by creating beautiful handmade corsages. We made our own flowers out of fabric and then added a variety of fabric strips. We made them into pins so that we could wear them or put them on or fabric books tomorrow!
We ended the day making a stamped fabric "hanger." We decided a sequin strip would be a perfect finishing touch!
We enjoyed tea sandwiches, chips and mini cookies today!
Tomorrow we will make our fabric book, composition book and mini book! Can't wait!
Artfully yours,
Mendy Mitrani
