Make What You Want!
This evening class is aimed at those who like to make what they want ! You will be guided by Nikki to make your own outcomes, learning new techniques to implement in your work. It helps if you have done some hand building before but not essential. Just think simple or use my templates !
In addition in Term 3 Nikki will demonstrate basic plaster mould making during the course for those that are interested.
