Let’s make a handful of fun paper/glass pieces for bedazzling. We will also create a couple of Valentines (it is that time…already!) and a tiny book or two.
In order to receive a kit for the program, please see your email for details and a supply list to have on hand.
About Anne Engelhardt:
What do I love more? Paper or Polka Dots? I think it depends on the day. Working with my hands is my meditation. As long as I can remember, I have been a maker--my appreciation and fascination for the decorative arts/crafts runs deep.
As a serial entrepreneur (emphasis on serial), combined with a passion for design and making, I have had the great fortune to earn a living doing what I love. I am an art school drop-out who went on to start, operate and, in some cases, sell the following businesses: AE Design, Papers!, Books by Hand, Solum World Paper, Paper Palette, PaperGami, Craft Fantastic and Creative Culture. In the nineties, I taught book art workshops across the country. In the first decade of this century, I worked in product development internationally. Overall, my life has been spent with paper and all things paper related! Lately, I have been digitally obsessed with vintage, public domain images, collage and designing on my computer.
