Paper Mâché Jack-O-Lanterns:

Time to get a little messy and bring back an old school art with a vintage vibe! With your choice of a few small buckets or one large one, you will spiff up that boring plastic Halloween candy bucket into an entirely new creation of your own design. This will be a two-session class. The first day, we will take news paper and glue to plaster a 3D character face onto your bucket, this will take a few days to dry. Day two your creative genius will develop deeper when you paint your bucket with a curious new face. Join me to bring new life to an old tradition! Note: If you would like to do a large bucket, please bring your own plastic Jack-O-Lantern candy pale.

Brass and Copper Sleigh Bells:

In this class you will be making brass and/or copper sleigh bells. You get your choice of metal and size of your bell/bells. Using a jewelry saw and stencil, you will cut out the rough shape of the bell. Once the shape is cut, with the help of files and sandpaper, you will smooth out the edges of your piece. Making precise measurements, you will drill two holes in the center of your unformed bell, this will be a means to hang it. Next, we will visit the soldering station and anneal the metal with a torch. You will shape your bell using a hammer and doming block. It may seem tedious, but you will be annealing and doming until your bell is fully shaped. Finally, you will thread a wire or ribbon through the holes that you drilled and insert a ball bearing into you bell. Bend the tongs of the bell to encase the ball and let sleigh bells ring!
