Fold it!

Create a Jewelry Christmas Tree
Saturday, November 19, 9-1 pm, AOTL Gallery
|
Let’s get together and create framed jewelry trees using old jewelry, beads, or costume pieces. Bring jewelry that you have and we will use it to create art that you can enjoy for years to come. This is a great way to preserve family hand me downs, repurpose unwanted or broken jewelry, or upcycle estate sale finds.
The piece you make will be a smaller one, than the one shown. Frames will be provided (8X8 or 8X10), or you can bring a small vintage frame of your own. You will use your jewelry, and there will also be some jewelry and beads available for your use. A list of recommended supplies and tools will be sent out to class participants prior to the class. Member/$25. Non-Member/$35 Materials Fee $20. Donna Westerling Is an award winning artist and creative. She started making Jewelry Christmas Trees in 2020 in memory of her mother and it quickly became a passion of hers. She's sharing her process so that others can enjoy making them too. Donna lives in Roseville, MN but has a weekend home in the Battle Lake area and has been a member of Art of the Lakes for many years. |
