Ann will provide a charming, little hand-carved wooden bird and show you how to add your own unique doodled designs. Ann has lots of fun ways to help you create beautiful, intriguing structured patterns and add a wax finish. When life feels challenging, wrap your hands around your Comfort Creature, give it a rub, and remind yourself to have a wonderful day. Makes a lovely gift. The birds are hand-carved and sealed. Materials fee also includes 2 pens, practice tiles, and instruction sheet.
Happy to take late registrations & walk-ins!

I now live in a small town of Hopkinton, Iowa. Spent most of my adult life taking all kinds of craft classes. The ones I enjoyed I practiced a lot so I could master them. Some of the crafts I really enjoyed most include carving, knitting, tatting, Hedebo, papercutting and Zentangle. I try to incorporate some of the crafts together. I have really enjoyed putting Zentangle on carvings. When people see them, they ask me to teach classes. I really enjoy passing along the craft to others.
