Escribiente Mini-Workshops:
Embossed Metal Pix Frames
Presented by Esther Feske
Saturday, July 24, 2010, 1:00pm
in the basement at Artisans on Monte Vista.
Re-using pieces of aluminum baking pans, we will make embossed picture/art frames. We will work small, perhaps 3"x4", so we can finish at least one. I will show some ways to stand/hang frames and ways to attach them as covers to books. Embellishment examples give artists more ideas for later. Wood embossing tool, aluminum & copper sheet provided. More details on our Workshops page...
