Botanical Necklace Workshop

Join us Saturday August 24th, 2019 at 11am for our new Botanical Necklace Workshop with Whitney Pope of Seed and Soil. Learn how to make beautiful botanical jewelry using resin and pressed flowers. Workshop will cover instructions for working with resin, basic flower pressing/drying principles, as well as how to make a chain. Once you master the technique in this special class you’ll be able to make beautiful rings, earrings, and more at home…the possibilities are endless!

Attendee’s will make a necklace in their choice of finish, shape, and botanical; silver or gold, square or teardrop, variety of plants and flowers. 

Due to the 24 hour cure time for resin, the completed project will be shipped to attendee’s the following week.

Whitney began working with resin as a creative outlet while earning her BS in Paralegal Studies. She and her family currently live in their remodeled tiny home RV and have a fall market tour planned across the U.S.

Mimosas and light brunch snacks are provided and you’ll get a discount on merchandise in Dandelion Post, where our studio is located that day!

Candle Making Workshop

With another baby boy arriving any day now we are taking a few weeks off but wanted to let you know about our next workshop. This is one of our most popular classes and we are so excited to offer it in our new space in Oakland for the first time. Hurry and register though…it always sells out!

Join us Thursday August 15th, 2019 at 7pm for a special candle making workshop with Hyunny of Lighten Up Shoppe. Hyunny will demonstrate how to make your very own candles teaching you the process from beginning to end. You'll go home with at least two candles mixed with your very own scent combinations using a variety of essential oils, fragrance oils, and dried flowers.

Lighten Up Shoppe was founded by two sisters, Joy and Hyunny in sunny northern California. Lighten Up Shoppe was created out of Joy's love for candles and Hyunny's obsession with crafting. The warmth and glow of a candle can transform any room into a sanctuary.  After a long day, take a moment to breathe, light a candle, and lighten up!

As always, we'll provide some wine and beer and snacks to fuel your creativity. We'll even give you a special discount on purchases at Dandelion Post (where our studio is located) that night! Be sure to sign soon, spaces will fill up fast.

We had so much fun at our June 29th Knit Pouf Cushion Workshop. It was the first time long time gather knitting instructor Cara Corey was offering the class in our space. The students really impressed us with their skills - most of them had never knit before! Check out the pictures below:
