We will paint fabrics in class in the morning.  I will demonstrate the embellishments in the afternoon. They are time consuming and will be finished on your own.  I used embroidery floss, small beads, yarns, silk ribbon, silver thread.  We can make up kits from my supplies or you may bring your own.  Kit prices will vary depending on what you take.  Your colors in this project do not need to match mine so bring whatever you like-consider trading with your neighbor! You wil need browns, greens, and flower colors.  You will need small needles for the beading and needles that will fit your embroidery threads.  You will need various sewing threads and a thimble for mounting your embellishments.  I did my embellishments by hand.  Some of them can be done by machine, if you choose.

If you are a new student with no supplies, I will make you a kit with the basic painting supplies for a kit fee of $18.00. You will still need the fabric and embellishments. 

Please let me know if you want a kit 5 days before class.  Melanie 760-908-2368
