From Jimothy to a bookshelf, everyone designed such fun prints in our Fabric Block Printing class! If you're near Seattle, we have a couple of unique, crafty classes right around the corner! ✂️⬇️

Someone smiles as they show off the cat block print design they stamped onto a piece of paper.

Someone works on designing and carving a small block print. A finished print which has a shelf of books and the word "READ" sits in front of them.

Making candles in Seattle! Come make your very own upcycled vintage teacup candle next week in Reuse Commons Lake City 🕯️⬇️

Someone holds an upcycled vintage teacup candle, and there are several behind them. The bottom text reads, "DIY Upcycled Teacup Candles with Salvation Artists Collective. Create a vintage teacup candle by choosing from a selection of teacups, scents, and colors. It makes the perfect gift or conversation piece!". It also states that the class will take place on August 6, from 6:30 to 7:30pm at Reuse Commons Lake City for $15 to $40.

We hosted our first collage-making class in Seattle! It was such a delight. It was $10 and all materials were provided, so the only thing folks had to bring was their creative juices ✂️🖼️🫶🫶

Folks smile and chat with one another during the Sol Collage class in Reuse Commons Lake City.

A whiteboard with the words, "Welcome to Sol Collage with Rachel!". There is also a quote, which reads, "The real secret to a fabulous life is to live imperfectly with great delight". On the bottom of the whiteboard are various Sol Collages.

Someone presents their Sol Collage as the two people on either side of them look at it.

People gather around in a circle as someone presents their finished Sol Collage to the group.
