Have fun getting ready for Easter 2007! You've seen these beautiful eggs before and probably just called them fancy Easter eggs. You'll learn the history, craft and legends of the gorgeous wax-resist process eggs (a very easy process) and about Ukraine, the area from which they originate. Ukraine is one of the 14 ex-Soviet republics. The craft is basically very simple. NO PREVIOUS ART EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY. Practice is the main ingredient. According to legend, the more eggs made in a year, the better luck you will have. Isn't that reason enough to get going on some eggs? I've written this course so if you want to follow along using only crayons, markers or colored pencils and using the print out paper eggs, you may. The basic supplies for this craft will cost approximately $10 to $15 (depending on which kit you purchase). You will learn meanings of colors and symbols appearing on the egg as well as new words to accompany your new skills. Finished eggs make beautiful gifts and sell in gift shops anywhere from $10 to $150, depending on the skill of the artist. Welcome to Ukrainian Eggs!

If you like scrapbooking, you'll love book art! This is a fun glue and paste class. I receive many emails from students telling me the fun they're having making their own books, journals and greeting cards. Most of the supplies are around you right now. We'll work with cardboard cereal boxes and other recycled materials. Bookmaking is a great stress reliever which you'll find yourself returning to again and again. The end product is your own creation - a way of giving yourself the gift of accomplishment. During the course we will be crafting small handmade books using three fun and easy methods. I will also direct you to more sources if you would like to continue this is in the future. If you're like me, you'll be making small decorative books for gifts and for yourself every chance you get. No previous art experience is necessary . You can do this easily -- if you promise not to run with scisssors. :)
