Latest Make It Mondays Online With Zoom Craft Project Announced

Space is limited for this virtual class, where participants will create a wall piece from toilet paper rolls.

Monday, Jul. 20, 6:00 pm

They practically flew off the shelves in March and April, so we know you've got 'em (but we've supplied some just in case!). Week 2 of Make It Mondays! is Creating With TPRs. We’ll supply enough toilet paper rolls (TPRs) for you to create a beautiful wall piece. The most important thing you'll get from this week's craft program is the knowledge and practice you'll need to create future pieces of your own! BEFORE THE PROGRAM, as always familiarize yourselves with the Make It Mondays! bag contents. If you have TPRs and/or paper towel rolls at home, the more the merrier, just remove any remaining paper from the rolls.

In order to complete this craft, you will need to purchase or have on hand: ruler, craft glue like Aleene’s Tacky Glue (which you can find at any craft store) or hot glue gun, pencil or pen, scissors or a rotary cutter or a box-cutter style knife/x-acto knife (when using these style knives be sure your work surface is protected), if using a rotary cutter, you'll need a self-healing mat and a rotary ruler.

You will also need a can of spray paint from a hardware store (metal effects spray paint such as Krylon or Rust-Oleum brand is very pretty on this type of craft), but do not purchase it beforehand. The reason I don't recommend you purchase the spray paint before the craft is done is that you may change your mind on the color after we discuss potential accessories and looks. Also, not necessary for this sample craft, but you may want to purchase if you want to create more TPR art...in addition to the above, a picture frame from a dollar store.

A separate registration is required for each week's session. You will receive your Zoom login information by email. You will also be notified by email when your Make It Mondays! bag of supplies is ready to be picked up. The Make It Mondays! bag will contain MOST of the materials needed to complete your craft. Space is limited!
