We're pleased to share a new Sweetpeas & Snapshots class along with a new instructor! You're invited to join us on June 14th for the 'Little Laundress Workshop', a hands-on tutorial reworking the vintage craft of clothespin dolls. Robert Mahar (more on him later!) has designed this workshop along with a beautiful class kit containing all 0f the materials you'll need to create four dolls - from their wooden frames to their painted features, including new and vintage materials & notions for the perfect outfits.
And we've opened up this class to participants ages eight and up - so if you have an older crafty kid with the attention span for a three hour project, this could be a great way to enjoy a Saturday together. Now don't let this scare you grown-ups off - Robert promises this is not daycare disguised as a craft class! You'll be surrounded by gorgeous materials in a fun atmosphere and encouraged to create a quartet of dollies as simple or elaborate as you please.
The workshop is limited to fourteen so we encourage you to register quickly! Class fees are $65. per person or save by bringing a friend - only $110. when you register two people. Call us at the shop 310-479-2444 to sign up.
Please note that the images above are examples of clothespin dolls shown to spark your imagination. However we want to note that they were created by artists who are not affiliated with Sweetpeas & Snapshots or this workshop. The first two photographs depict dolls created by the amazing Lolliop Workshop where you can purchase completed dolls and the bottom photograph depicts dolls created by Susan Van Horn of My Sweet Imaginations who also sell the sweetest completed dolls.
