Intro to Wood Furniture Refinishing | Part 1
Intro to Wood Furniture Refinishing
with Anna Lucas of Bouclé Home
$350 - Two Day Workshop
November 16th 3pm-7pm & November 17th 3pm-5pm
In this workshop, you’ll learn the basics of turning an outdated small piece of furniture into one that you’re happy to see in your home!
We’ll go over: Stripping old paint and varnish, sanding properly while respecting the wood, assessing quality of wood and deciding on re-staining or re-painting, steps to proper staining and/or painting, finishing and protecting for everyday use. We will also learn how to use some basic power tools like a sander, and safety precautions around chemicals.
You’ll bring a small piece of furniture of your choice to work on:
Pick one from your own home that you’ve always wanted to update!
Thrift one (Facebook marketplace always has plenty of cheap offerings like side tables, chairs, mirrors, little shelves, that just need a little TLC (happy to help you source a great piece, but with a little research it’s very easy to find something good in the $20-50 range)
I’ll bring a couple of pieces I have thrifted to the workshop that will be available at cost as a plan B (but it’s really much more fun if you bring one you’re really excited about).
Please note that if your piece is covered in multiple coats of the old finish to strip, it will leave less time for the refinishing part of the workshop.
We won’t have the time to work on damages (like big dents, or structural/stability issues). We’ll be focusing more on updating wood color and uplifting damaged surfaces with paint.
Things can get a little messy so wear comfortable clothes and closed shoes, that you don’t mind staining (and/or an apron), wear your nails somewhat short if possible (as we’ll be wearing protective gloves for some steps), your hair up, and remove jewelry before getting started!

Sewing Level II: Sew a Tee Shirt
Sewing Level II: Sew a Tee Shirt
$150
In this workshop, we will construct a not-so-basic basic – a cotton tee shirt! This class will explore the nuances of sewing knit cotton jersey, a stretch material that behaves differently from more structured woven fabrics. If you have found yourself struggling to make the jump to knits, this workshop is for you! We will spend lots of time working with a serger, learn to attach a rib collar, and will use stretch-friendly finishing stitches that can be done on any home machine.
Choose from two different tee shirt styles – a classic tee or a boxy crop. White cotton jersey and 1x1 rib will be provided (both fabrics milled locally in Los Angeles), and we will sew with cotton thread so the shirts can be dyed to the color of your choice after the workshop.
This class is perfect for the intermediate beginner who already has basic experience and competency with a sewing machine. Some experience with a serger is ideal, but not necessary.
Please refer to the size chart below to select your style and size. You will prompted to enter this at checkout!

My name is Jimena, I'm an oil painter based in Los Angeles, California.
My artistic journey began in Spain, where I studied Fine Art and immersed myself in various workshops, trying to absorb as much as I could from the masters. This summer, I had the pleasure of teaching a workshop in Italy, sharing my passion for painting with others.
My work blends realism with a dreamlike with a bit of an impressionistic touch— drawing inspiration from nature, folklore, films, poems, and everyday life, I use loose brushstrokes to let light and movement flow freely across the canvas, creating a fantasy-like quality in everyday subjects while maintaining a realistic foundation.

Silver Clay Charms
Silver Clay Charms
with The Temerity
$150
Experience the alchemy of silver clay!
In this class, we will explore the quixotic medium of silver clay to create custom charms + jewelry. Silver clay behaves similarly to earthen clay, and can be shaped and molded by hand or pressed into molds. In this class, we will start with an overview of creating silicone molds, using stamps or botanical prints, so that students can make multiples or matchings sets. Students are welcome to use hand forming techniques as well, to create unique pieces! Once our creations are dried, they will be torch fired, revealing the pure .999 silver within.
The second portion of the class will focus on polishing, filing, and placing jump rings. Students will have the chance to learn to solder, use a variety of jewelry making tools, and create a small collection of pure silver charms. Sterling silver findings will be provided.
Each student will recieve 5 grams of clay with their workshop fee. Additional clay can be purchased in the studio for $5/gram.

Rebecca Holopter is a multi-hyphenate artist who focuses on ease, joy, and nostalgia. Jealous of her brother's ninja turtle drawings, Rebecca's aunt set her down at a young age and said "it's just practice." With this sentiment, Rebecca continued to practice and study art throughout college. In 2015 she drew and animal a day (maintaining the practice while drinking wine in Italy!) and in 2016 she extended the practice with a watercolor painting a day. Since then she has continued with watercolor adding in other art mediums such as embroidery, acrylic, and pastels to explore skin tones and textures in colorful portraits and the freedom in excessive abstracts. She has taught in different mediums for the past 6 years and encourages her students with the same sentiment that was instilled in her - it's all just practice.

Rebecca Holopter is a multi-hyphenate artist who focuses on ease, joy, and nostalgia. Jealous of her brother's ninja turtle drawings, Rebecca's aunt set her down at a young age and said "it's just practice." With this sentiment, Rebecca continued to practice and study art throughout college. In 2015 she drew and animal a day (maintaining the practice while drinking wine in Italy!) and in 2016 she extended the practice with a watercolor painting a day. Since then she has continued with watercolor adding in other art mediums such as embroidery, acrylic, and pastels to explore skin tones and textures in colorful portraits and the freedom in excessive abstracts. She has taught in different mediums for the past 6 years and encourages her students with the same sentiment that was instilled in her - it's all just practice.

Meg Jorgenson is a painter based in Los Angeles. She is known for her meditative works that explore the congruence between natural figuration and poetic abstraction. Her studied experimentation in creating pigments from foraged natural elements creates a sense of refraction with color and texture. Drawing inspiration from ancient parietal painters who used clay-derived paints to communicate as well as the pioneering female artists of spiritualism, Jorgenson utilizes art as a medium to delve into ephemeral moments of the soul. An interplay between the tangible and the subconscious, her work invites the viewer into a transcendental landscape that evolves with the beauty of attention.
