Join me at SCRAP in S.F.  for a DIY party workshop. Get inspired to make your

own party decorations, center pieces, creative wrapping techniques for favors

or party bags, banners and invites. Of course all materials will be repurposed or

recycled to make a green party for all.

June 30,2012 

Saturday 12-5pm

These party hats were fun and easy to make. I searched in my studio and found a variety of paper to use.
Do you recognize the former atlas page, card board, wall paper and re-used wrapping paper. This is just one 
of the projects we can work on at the DIY party workshop next week!

Ramekkon O'arwister at the de Young Museum

We celebrated friends Leslie and Yuriko's birthday by going to the de Young museum and checking out the Jean Gautier fashion exhibit. 

Another friend Susan told us not to miss checking out the Artist in Residence 

Ramekon O'arwisters show in the Kimball Gallery. It was amazing! We all crocheted some materials onto a huge art piece and some of us added pieces to the object pieces.  I am planning on donating puzzle piece and fabric to his studio for more art pieces. This show is down now sorry to say but I had to post about it.

HURRY on over to Ruth's Table in San Francisco for our first open vessel terrarium class this 

Saturday the 28th of April. I will be assisted in the workshop by owners of 

the Succulent Sisters. In the tradition of Ruth's Table we will be repurposing glass found at thrift stores and rummage sales and adorning our miniature green worlds with succulents and an assortment of wood, glass or shells if desiredl

Go to Ruth's Table website and click on programs. The workshop is $20.00 for adults and $7.00 for children accompanied by an adult.

Check out all the succulents at Claude Geffray's green house in Chico, Ca. I had such
a hard time choosing the succulents for the class!
