What if your memories didn’t live hidden away in a box—tucked in a closet, basement, or under the bed—but instead were transformed into something you could see, feel, and truly enjoy? That’s exactly why my dear friend, fellow workshop trainer, and artist Christie and I are so excited to host a Shadow Box Making Workshop this August—right in my backyard. There’s something powerful about making the time, committing to yourself, and creating alongside others. It’s what turns good intentions into something real—something you’ll actually complete and cherish. Come make something meaningful with us We’ll provide enhancing art supplies, glue guns, and no shortage of ideas to help you create a shadow box that showcases your memories.
