The focus for this months meeting is Gold Leafing - Aim is to add small amounts of dazzle and enhancements, not to do an entire gourd in
If you want to join in on this venue you will need to bring a finished gourd ready to apply the leafing. This is a quick project as the gourd is already basically done, so you might want to also bring a second project to work on
Gold Leafing can be purchased at Michaels (especially nice with a coupon) and you will also need
Sizing (to make the leaf stick)
small brush (sacrificial brush, they get gunked up) ,and maybe a
Heat Gun
Kennie says she has some extra materials to share
If you are not doing the 'gold' thing, just bring whatever project you are currently working on along with whatever you need for that project
If you have something for Show n' Tell please bring it to share.
If you have any taste treats you want to share, feel welcome to bring them also.
