In the upper Midwest, Spring is in the air! Or perhaps my burgeoning tulips are just being optimistic. This Spring, Mr. T2S and I will be busy preparing for several shows and teaching our first class, the Vintage-Inspired Christmas Hutch with Glitter Houses. If you will be attending the
Texas Miniature Showcase in May, or the
Sturbridge Miniatures Festival in June, I hope you will join us. We'll have fun working with LED lighting, paper techniques and assembling glitter houses. The lighted glitter houses and the decorations will be added to a hutch that has been beautifully painted and aged by Jo Dewane Miniatures (the QUEEN of mini aging techniques!).
Vintage Style Christmas Hutch with Glitter Houses
1” scale Aged Hutch (prepared by Jo Dewane) holds 2 sizes
of glitter houses which you will assemble and light.
Learn to work with LED lights to create this charming Christmas
display. The light switch and battery are housed behind the cabinet
doors, allowing you to easily add and remove the hutch from your
scene. You will be given tips and shown techniques for working with
paper, as we assemble 2 sizes of glitter houses and decorate them.
Materials and instructions to make the decorations shown will also
be included in the class.
Tools required: 6” ruler, sharp tweezers, x-acto knife with new
blades, small paint brushes (old and new), small wire cutters, work
light, small sharp scissors, white glue, magnification if needed.
Class registration for the Texas Miniature Showcase is available on their
website. If you are interested in attending the class in Sturbridge, please
contact me. We will also be teaching a class at
Philadelphia Miniaturia in November.
I hope you can join us!
