Craft Night - Feb 19th

Next Thursday (Feb 19) is our first 'Craft Night' enrichment group. Kim Hackworth will be instructing us on how to do altered letters. Following is the information (materials needed) for this project. If for some reason you are unable to acquire the materials needed we want you to still come! Bring your own projects from home to finish up while socializing and spending time with other sisters.


Altered Letter Project:





The H and Joy is made with chipboard but the wish one is wood. I have a wooden letter I'll probably bring to work on.

They need...

wood or chipboard letter (or word)
patterned paper (can use more than one sheet if wanted like the Joy sample)
mod podge or other decoupage medium
sand paper or sanding block (fine grit)
2 foam brushes (one for paint and one for glue)
paint (color coordinate with paper)
ink if wanted (Ranger's Distress Ink works really well for this)
gesso if using a wooden letter (this is to prime it)
pencil
scissors or craft knife
anything they want to embellish their letters with...ribbon, rub-ons, flowers, wire, etc

It would be good if they already had their letters primed and painted (wood). If they are using chipboard, then they can paint the edges of their chipboard before they come.
