Handmade custom and personalized gifts show the recipient how much you care about them.
I love to create custom and personalized items because they are one of a kind, unique and thoughtful. If you are in need of a special gift for a wedding, baby shower, birthday, anniversary, Mother's Day, Father's Day, graduation, any holiday or special occasion, I would love to make something just for you.
I am available to teach workshops for a variety of crafting projects - wood signs, paper crafting, paper succulent gardens, banners, and all kinds of other items. These workshops are great for craft nights with friends, bridal showers, birthday parties, and Girls' Night Out. Let me know what you have in mind and I'll work with you to make it an event you and your friends won't soon forget (in a good way!).

PLEASE NOTE:
I will travel to all workshops I offer and bring all the necessary tools and materials needed. The host will provide enough table space and chairs for each guest and, if they wish, beverages and snacks for their guests.
Classes for the Silhouette Cameo include instruction and travel to the location where the training will take place. The registrant will provide their Silhouette Cameo, laptop computer, cutting mat, card stock and vinyl. I will send a PayPal invoice for payment. Payment should be paid within three days of invoice to guarantee your class.
Once you have contacted me to book a workshop, I will set up the event on Eventbrite and send the host a link to invite their guests. All guests must pre-register and pay through the Eventbrite link no later than 7 days prior to the event date. Due to the amount of preparation for each guest, no late registrations or payments can be accepted.
In the event a registered guest cannot attend a class or workshop and needs to cancel, a two week notice is required for a full refund. No refunds can be made after the deadline, but a credit for the full amount of the workshop will be available to the guest to book a future workshop within a 3 month period.
If I need to cancel a class or workshop, I will work with you to schedule another date or refund the full amount paid.
Travel is limited to locations within the Southern California areas of Los Angeles County east of the 605 freeway, and in Orange County north of Crown Valley Parkway (approximately). Please contact me if you have questions.
