Watercolor Bookmark Craft Night
Join me for a creative and relaxing watercolor bookmark workshop where you’ll learn the basics of watercolor and create bookmarks you’ll actually use and enjoy.
We’ll begin with a short introduction to watercolor techniques so you can get comfortable with the materials and practice a few simple skills. From there, you’ll move into painting your bookmarks. You’ll have the option to paint from a selection of my pre-drawn designs or create your own artwork on blank bookmarks if you’d like to make something completely original.
Once your bookmarks are finished, you’ll choose from a variety of tassel colors to add the perfect finishing touch.
This workshop is open to all skill levels, including beginners, and all materials are provided. You’ll leave with several finished watercolor bookmarks and the confidence to continue exploring watercolor on your own.
This workshop is for participants who are ages 15&up!
