About this Event

Class Description

Layer on some sweet custom decorations to a heart-cake trinket box w/ mirror & shelf. From punny to sweet sentiments, encapsulate a moment that serves smiles ( :

Do you admire the craftspersonship of vintage cake making but dislike the frosting proportions as much as I do? Regardless, here’s a casual chance at a fun weekend activity making something with fuzzy-feels this Valentine’s Day. Leave with a trinket box self-decorated as a replica cake. Perfect for crafty storage, jewelry accessories, or a thoughtfully unique gift.

Students will receive a kit, review examples, and get sketching templates to test out quick ideas. We’ll go over a couple piping techniques and some topping options as we set-up our canvases to layer on ideas. ‘Frosting’ will be set by the end of the session, but we advise extra same-day precautions.
