The first is “Find Joy Every Day,” a 10″ x 13″ wall hanging that you can frame.  (Frame is not included).  Everything on this project will be fusible (except the button, which you will tie on with ric-rac).  The second is an Anthropologie-Style necklace made from no-sew fabric flowers.  You provide a 30″ chain (available at most craft stores or anywhere jewelry-making supplies are sold) and we’ll provide the rest.  If you’d rather, we’ll have alligator clips and you can make the flowers into great hair clips or accessories.  Cost of the class is $15.  This includes not only the make and take project but also gets you a ticket to the Expo.  Come in or call the store at 801-492-7929 to register.  If you register by phone, be sure to stop in and get your expo ticket before you come down.  We’d love to have you join us!  See complete details about the Expo at www.uvexpo.com.
