Art and Education
I was invited to teach an art class at our local pre-school, Kids Club House this year! Both of my kids attended KCH and thrived, so I’m so excited to be part of the KCH family. I can’t wait to have fun with these kids and expose them to different techniques & mediums. I think […]
Jasmine’s new hand-made dress
I spent a good part of the afternoon attempting to create new clothes for my daughter’s Barbie and Princess dolls.
