🎨 Busted Canvas Craft Workshop
✨ We’ve got a fun and totally unique craft planned for September! ✨
Don’t be intimidated by this post being a little longer—I just wanted to cover everything so you’ll know exactly what to bring and how to make your project completely your own.
We’ll be creating a busted canvas. While it may look complicated, it’s actually simple and should take about an hour. The best part? No two will ever be the same!
👉 You do not need everything listed under “Embellishments.” Those are just examples to spark ideas—the fun is in making your piece unique!
Many supplies can be found at Dollar Tree or with things you already have at home.
Have questions? Just call or text me anytime at 336-494-8368!
✨ Remember, you don’t have to do the busted canvas to join us on September 13th! ✨
You’re welcome to bring any project you’d like to work on—or just come hang out, meet new friends, and enjoy some good company. 💕
This group is all about being social, connecting, and having fun together. 🎨🤝
