Back by popular demand: Fairy House Workshop, with Guest Instructor Tammie Nelson
Saturday, December 12 · 1-4 PM · $55 per kid
Magical creatures love a cozy home where they can rest after their mystical (and sometimes mischievous!) adventures. In this hands-on workshop, young artists will design and build a 100% natural fairy house, or a home for any magical being they can imagine.
Each participant will choose their own base, such as responsibly harvested Maine birch bark, then decorate it from a treasure trove of natural materials: pinecones, lichen, shells, feathers, dried flower petals, fall leaves, and more. To finish, we’ll add a gentle sprinkle of fairy dust to seal in the magic!
About the instructor
We’re delighted to welcome Tammie Nelson back to teach this popular class again. Tammie spends her summers in Maine gathering every material by hand: fallen bark, seashells, coral weed, pinecones, and wildflowers. She then prepares them herself, taking pinecones apart scale by scale, drying her own flowers, and boiling and dyeing the coral weed, so every fairy house is eco-friendly, safe from creepy crawlies, and truly one of a kind. Ann Marie (the Arteasy Founder) will also be assisting with the event.
Who can join
This is a drop-off the kids workshop, open to kids in 1st grade and up. Parents are welcome to stay and enjoy our free wi-fi or tea stay if they’d like, but staying the whole time is not required.
