A BJD Course Like no Other

Wow! Just Wow!. That is what most people said after they watched Noemi Smith give the course  Making a Ball Jointed Doll Character with Paperclay.

During 3 days she went into major detail on how to create a ball jointed doll in a professional way. Everything so if you want to cast your dolls later to sell you would have the best prototype to work with.

The joints were advanced and people were mesmerized by how she makes them. And how she works with paperclay was a Wow moment for most.

How to Weave on a Triangle Loom

How fun this class How to Weave on a Triangle Loom has been!

I really thought that weaving on a tri loom was easy and simple but found out there is a lot more options and a lot of things to learn. I thought the plain weave was the only option for this type of loom but I was really wrong on that.

Jenny Ferguson is so cute and so knowledgeable. Not only on triangle loom but all things fiber. She is a major spinner and an Alpaca farmer. We showed some of her Alpacas during the course.

The course on Triangle loom is a must for every fiber enthusiast.

It is getting a little colder out there so it is the perfect time to learn triangle loom weaving and start making awesome shawls. By the way there are many more things that can be created on the tri loom. Think that 2 triangles make a square and then the World is an oister.

Mixed Media Watercolor Animals Course

We started today the Mixed Media Watercolor Course with Kenzie Galbraith. She makes gorgeous animals that look amazing on a wall and even on a tattoo.

Plus she uses all kinds of cool pencils, gouache and watercolor.

This first day she is teaching people how to draw the animals. She started with the grid system and some other two options of drawing the animals in an easy way

Talk about a huge success! Deanna Baugh rocked the house. Thousands of people from all around the World came to see  Weaving on the Rigid Heddle Loom live online course.

No questions were left unanswered and she showed how to weave a beautiful scarf on the rigid heddle loom.

She showed a nice selection of options to weave on the rigid heddle loom. She loves to make dish towels and a lot of our audience does too. That never crossed my mind.
