Students will need to bring the following tools: One 2 gallon plastic bucket for water, one dull kitchen knife with pointed tip, a pair of 4-6 inch scissors, a 12 inch ruler, notebook and pencil, a stapler and a sharp pocket knife.

Class fee $375.00 – a non-refundable registration fee of $75 is due at the time of registration. The remainder of the class fee ($300.00) plus any material fee is payable to the instructor at the beginning of class. (does not include lodging)
