Description

“I noticed my students were driving incredible distances just to attend a basic workshop. Living in a regional area, I knew how difficult it was to access reliable information when I first started. This book is my way of bringing the studio to their kitchen table.”

Unlike many craft titles that assume prior knowledge, my book focuses on accessibility. Key features include:

Household Hardware: Smart suggestions for using everyday household items instead of expensive, specialized tools.
Step-by-Step Success: Detailed photography and instructions for three foundational projects.
Industry-Proven Techniques: Professional methods simplified for the home creator to ensure “lump-free” success.
