Now that winter is here it’s a great time to pick up a paintbrush and explore your creative abilities. I invite you to come and paint with me in my inspirational studio.
Choose one day, SAT May 18th / SUNDAY May 19th 1pm -5pm. $185 all materials supplied including a wine and snacks. You just have to bring your own canvas.

In this 4 hour workshop we will be exploring abstraction. I will be showing you new methods and materials to create unique effects in your creative process. I will teach you how to take risks and get unstuck moving your art forward.
We will discuss what we like in art and how we respond to these attributes.
This class is suited for anyone, from painting dabblers to seasoned artists.
This is not a learn how to draw class, it is an exercise in expression and finding your own rthym and painting style.
Please feel free to share this amongst your friends and give me a call if you have any questions.
Call Jacki 021 0735661
I can’t wait to paint with you!
Regards Jacki

Ever thought about reviving old stuff or getting crafty with budget finds? It's a blast! Plus, there are no limits to your creativity!

Check out these cool ideas:

1. **Bedhead Makeover:** Hunt down a vintage timber bedhead at a thrift store. If it needs a little TLC, give it a sanding and coat it with your kid's favorite colour. Voila! Now it's not just a bedhead; it's a bookshelf too! Perfect for storing their treasures.

2. **Funky Display Shelf:** Grab a circular shelf and jazz it up with a splash of paint. It's like creating a piece of art that's also functional! Easy peasy.

3. **Floating Desk Magic:** All you need is a sturdy benchtop and some support underneath. Mount it on the wall, and hey presto! Add a pegboard for hanging headphones, artwork, or any other knick-knacks your kid loves.

4. **Art Corner Fun:** Turn a boring alcove into an art haven with chalkboard paint. Instant creativity zone!

5. **Comfy Bench Seat:** Create a cosy spot for reading and playing. Lay a bookshelf on its side, top it with a foam mattress, and cover it up. Now you've got a comfy seat with built-in storage for books and toys. Win-win!

With these ideas, your kids' room will be the coolest spot in the house!
