Please sign up in advance. If you don’t, I can’t possibly know how much of what to pack up and bring. Time: 9am – 11am Course cost: $10 for members/ $15 for nonmembers Materials fee: $10 per door with accessories (students are welcome to make more than one door, if time permits, for an extra materials fee) Supplies Provided: Polymer clay and sculpting tools Student should bring: Bring a small box, or carton to transport your unbaked clay pieces home in. A shoebox lid or similar will be plenty big enough. If you want to match scale to other fairy garden pieces you already own, bring a few of those pieces along. Age requirements: 12 and older, Kids 6 and up with a helper parent (who may sign up to make their own project if they wish). Skill Level: Beginner is fine Minimum number of students: 2 Maximum number of students: 10 For this class, helper parents don’t count separately, and may sign up and pay to make their own project, without affecting total count. Course Description: Give your garden fairies a fire ring, toadstool seats, marshmallows to roast, and a few other campfire accessories using easy to sculpt, brightly colored polymer clay. You might know it as Sculpey or FIMO. These pieces will weather several summers in the great outdoors, barring encounters with lawn mowers or clumsy human feet… just like the fairies. These projects are easy enough for beginners, but details can be added by experienced clayers, so this class is perfect for anyone. Do fairies frolic in your garden? Better make them some fun furnishings to let them know they are welcome to settle in and stay! In this first of 3 May Fairy Furnishings workshops, you can make a firepit and all the accessories to ensure your fine friends dance through the night, spreading magic and delight.
