Dear Moms,
First, please thank your students for their patience as I have tried to figure out how best to fit this in to my schedule! Your students had requested the opportunity to make the book sculpture vases the other students made last semester. I would like to offer them this chance. I think what would work best if we do two sessions — the first to quickly set them up to be able to do their book cutting at home, then the second to do the watercolor effects and make their books vases.
I will be available at Grace Church during the Classical Christian Choir Treble Choir time - 4:15- 4:45 - on January 25th. I will set up in one of the back rooms. Students would need to come directly back after concert choir (or if they do not participate, arrive), and I would demonstrate and set up their book vases. I still have their books BTW
I think 30-40 min is sufficient. They will likely have at least an hour of cutting at home depending on how thick their books are. Then we will plan to meet again either February 1st or 8th, 4:15-5:00 (your call —— let me know which you prefer) to have them watercolor and put together their vases. If each student had a blow dryer, that would be super helpful! I will also likely have the watercolor bookmarks available for them to make one or two with the leftovers
Margaret — I believe Suzannah was sick and would like to do this project as well…
SO — Please RSVP to me if your student would like to make the vases, and the dates you are committed to being available.
With joy,
Michelle
