Between getting ready for Once Upon An Easter and prepping the kits to send to Georgia, I’ve taken some breaks to work on the watercolor journals for the class at the cottage on Saturday, April 20th.
Each is a small, watercolor notebook with 140lb paper. I have enveloped them in a deconstructed pour paint canvas, then embellished them and added a ribbon tie.
On the inside of the back cover, I’ve added a pocket.
The pockets are designed to hold the watercolor tips and tricks page that I made.
It gives steps on how to paint the little bluebird that I will hand draw on the front page of each notebook.
You also will receive a pack of watercolor pens to keep so you can practice in your new book.
Once painted, the bird will be ready to pop into a little frame that can be foofed up with a selection of vintage jewels, ribbons, and lace.
I have had a lot of interest in the classes (Karen Hillman will be doing two pretty lessons that day too).
But- it is Easter weekend.
Not the best date to plan an event, huh? Well, my buddy happens to be visiting at that time and we are happy to have the day to play together, hoping a few people could join us.
And luckily, a handful of Peeps are able to attend.
But many have said it is an action packed family time or Easter dinner prep day.
At first I was only offering the classes and luncheon as a package deal. But since people are so busy, I thought I’d modify that to say that if you would like to come in the morning and stay for lunch to do Karen’s two projects, or come for lunch and stay for my afternoon project that would be an option.
You could play with pretties for just half a day, then still have time to get that cake baked and those eggs dyed.
If you are interested:
Morning session with lunch is $60
Afternoon session with lunch is $60
No time to relax over a meal? A session alone is $50
(But don’t think you will leave hungry, I’ll pack up some treats to go for you!)

There are so many times I wish I lived closer to Kansas. These are beautiful and I'd be your first sign-up!
