Accepted Answer

Each class will be 1.5 hours. After a brief demonstration, you will have access to the materials and paint and create. Some parties may linger depending on whether there is another scheduled afterwards. 
If you attend one of the winery or restaurant events, you are more than welcome to attend before and stay after the class at the venue to enjoy the food and beverages they offer.

Question 7

Items that require a resin finish.

Accepted Answer

For most coaster projects, they will need a resin finish. The coasters will need 3 days for the paint to dry and I will resin them after that. the resin coat takes another 3 days to dry. The coaster will be available for pick up no more that a week from the class date.

Question 8

Reuse, Recycle, Repurpose

Accepted Answer

In most of my pieces, I use recycled and repurposed items. I am trying to do my part by not throwing things in landfill. All my coasters come from contractors that do not need them as they have completed their projects and can not return them, so they go into the landfill. I find a new purpose for them and give them a new lease on life. The same goes for my dish ware and tray items.
