Class:

What better way to celebrate Father’s Day than to give him personalized notes, I-love-you’s, photos, and small artwork made by you! And all of these keepsakes will fit nicely in the hand-decorated treasure box that you designed! In this class, you will create a colorful (and meaningful) wooden box using paint, patterned paper, washi tapes, stickers, and more. You will learn a variety of mixed-media techniques specific to decorating a cube-like form, and also have the opportunity and time to make some of the keepsakes, notes, and artwork to put in Dad’s Treasure Box.

What You’ll Learn:

Students will learn a variety of methods to decorate surfaces including, but not limited to, using washi tape, painting and drawing on a three-dimensional object, incorporating mixed-media approaches for embellishment. Throughout the class, we will discuss what it means to endow objects with meaning and significance.

What You’ll Leave With:

A personalized, hand-decorated treasure box filled with keepsake messages and artwork for Dad on his special day!
