Hiding in Plain Sight: Book with a Drawer

February 25 10am to 4pm

$90 Material Fee

In this exciting class you will transform a book into a work of art with a hidden treasure drawer. Armed with a few tricks and cool techniques, you will carve out spaces in the spine of an old book into which you will insert a tiny match box to create a drawer where you can hid wishes, prayers or tiny treasures. Using paints and glues and a few treats from the teacher, you will complete a piece worthy of display.
