Technique Bazaar will consist of learning new techniques that will be included in the classes and kits that will be for sale by each instructor. Techniques that will be included, but not limited to, are Distressing, Inking, Ranger products, glueing, using stencil’s, sewing on your pages, and more. If you have anything you are wanting to learn, please let Rona know and she can pass it on to us and we will be sure to cover it!
Classes offered will be each teacher’s own creation and examples will be displayed several weeks in advance. These will be taught in a classroom like environment and if you choose all four classes you will be able to stay in the same seat for each class.
Supper will include bottomless homemade spaghetti, seven layer salad, garlic bread, chocolate eclair and strawberry lemonade or tea. Cost is $6.00. Snacks will also be served during the evening. This will be a surprise!

We will also be purchasing t~shirts to sell. If you are interested and want to make sure you get your size please tell Rona or email me at cyndesharok@hotmail.com and I will make sure you get one. I am estimating the cost of the t~shirts will be less than $10.00.
This retreat is something I have been wanting to do for a long time and I hope you will considering coming and enjoying a evening of fun with friends that enjoy the same hobby as you do! Hopefully this is a first of many more to come!!
