AGES 14-Adult
Snowflakes & Sparkle
Four Epoxy Snowflake Ornaments
MONDAY, December 7, 2026 | 6-8pm | $55**
Instructor: Sally Rech of Rech Family Gardens
**Because epoxy is involved anyone under the age of 18 must have an adult partner to assist—make it a fun family team event! A youth/adult team is still $55 as you will make four ornaments as a team.
Add a little handmade sparkle to your holidays! Join us for a fun, beginner-friendly epoxy workshop where you'll create a set of FOUR gorgeous 3D snowflake ornaments!
We'll start with a quick introduction to the basics of working with epoxy resin, then the fun begins! Choose your colors, glitter and special touches to create four one-of-a-kind snowflakes that shimmer from every angle. Make all four for your own tree or keep one and give three as handmade gifts
PLEASE NOTE: Epoxy needs several hours to properly cure, so your finished snowflakes will stay with us overnight and will be ready for pickup the following day.
Come create, sparkle and make a little holiday magic with us!
