From Discarded to Delight: Crafting Your Own Found Object Treasure Box
This hands-on creative workshop invites you to transform everyday discarded items into a unique, personalized treasure box. In this inspiring class, you’ll delve into the art of upcycling as you curate various found objects—old buttons, broken jewelry, vintage postcards, and more—and learn how to combine them into a stunning keepsake that tells your story. You’ll explore techniques in collage, assembling, and embellishing, all while nurturing your imagination and resourcefulness.
By the end of the session, you’ll have a one-of-a-kind treasure box that reflects your personality and celebrates the beauty of reclamation, proving that something once deemed as waste can become a cherished heirloom.No experience is necessary.
*Students are encouraged to bring their own variety of found items and “junk” that may hold personal meaning such as broken jewelry or shards of china.* A stash of items will be available from which to choose but having personal tidbits will enhance your experience.
