I was just asked about my classes ... Where/when. I teach in my studio, here in my home. I haven't taught any in a couple of months (taking a break from creating designs, and focusing on learning new skills and being the student). I'll be going to England with Wendy Vecchi (owner/designer of Studio 490, and Signature Designer for Ranger) in July, so I'm not sure if I'll be holding any classes until after I return. When I do plan a class, I post the class information here on the blog, and also send email invites. If you'd like to get on my email list, send your information to stefrick@verizon.net (name, email addy, interests, what level do you work at ... Beginner, intermediate, expert?). That's the best way to find out what's going on in "Mrs. Rodgers' Neighborhood."
Now, for the type of classes I teach, and how they run ... I prepare and supply everything. You just need to bring your own adhesive and a refill. Some ladies also bring their own scissors and/or bone folder, so they don't have to wait for the shared tools. I also make a color sheet describing each technique, supplies used to make sample, and step-step instructions to make more at home! My classes rarely have more than 6 students. I prefer small classes ... Students have more room, and I can give more attention when needed. Classes are usually from 6:30-9pm. I have a daytime job now, so I need everyone to be out by 9pm so I can relax a little before going to bed.
Techniques Class: make 3 cards while learning new techniques $20.
Make Your Own Embellishments Class: no need to buy cute embellishments that you get home and find they don't match well with your project. I show you different techniques to make your own! No specific project will be made, just embellishments for you to take home. $20-$25 (depending on supplies cost).
Scrapbooking Techniques: Learn different and creative tricks and techniques to use in your scrapbooking. No specific project will be made, just samples of techniques for you to take home. $20-$25 (depending on supplies cost).
Jewelry Class: working on this. I have lots of tip & techniques up my sleeves. Gotta work out the details.)
So, if you're interested, send me an email at stefrick@verizon.net and I'll put on my mailing list.
Thanks!
Stephanie
