Inspired by my trip to Spacecraft in Brooklyn, I made some paper-mâché lamps. The lamps turned out great, using tissue paper, “Chinese New Year” metallic paper and printed vellum. The light shines through the paper and creates awesome ambiance! We will be creating a class based on our super-duper technique! Be on the lookout for it!

Aw aren’t these pups the cutest! Hand crafted for a 70th birthday celebration. These postcards are just the sweetest way to say hello to a friend or tell someone you love them… and their dog.

This past weekend we held our first screen printing workshop! It was such a blast! Our students learned how to build their own screen, use paper templates and print. We avoid using the harsh chemicals of normal screen printing and our process can be done at home! Our class was so cool that we are thinking of having it on a monthly basis!
The next couple of blogs will be focused on our new passion, keep checking back to see all the crazy cool things you can do with just a screen, paper and some ink!
