Together we will create a whimsical shadow box filled with tiny waxed dresses hanging from their own clothesline.  A jointed and dressed paper doll will help to complete the picture.  It will be a fast-paced class, from preparing and painting the frames, to sewing and embellishing the tiny dresses.  We will definitely be using our simple sewing skills and see the wonders of  dipping our little dresses in beeswax with resin.
