Build your own cozy, personalized fireplace vignette! October 16, 21 and 23 10:00-11:30 a.m. Create a cozy scene in miniature during this three-part diorama class focused on building a charming fireplace vignette! Participants will be provided with a fireplace kit, a 7?-deep shadow box and all necessary supplies, along with step-by-step instruction to bring their tiny space to life. Over the course of three sessions, you?ll assemble, paint and customize your fireplace scene while learning techniques for texture, aging and scale.
