A Very Silky Holiday: Silk Scarf-Making Workshop
Sunday Dec. 4, 2011: 1-5PM
1865 Jonathan Ave.
San Jose, CA 95125
(~Rain or shine~)
Make beautiful silk scarves that often retail for $50-$100 for just the price of materials. We will have scarves made of burn-out velvet, chenille, and silk rayon in lovely patterns and textures. (Get a preview of some of the stock we will have available by visiting Dharma Trading Company website http://www.dharmatrading.com/html/eng/3273-AA.shtml?lnav=scarves.html.) We will teach you how to dye and treat the silk in this easy workshop. No artistic talent needed!
This is a festive event – we will have beverages and snacks for our guests. If you are so inclined, bring something to share!
Prices range from $5-$20 per project. (Cost of materials)
Church of Silk workshops feature hands-on, one-on-one instruction in tie-dyeing and hand-painting silk fabric to make rainbow-fabulous sarongs, scarves, and best of all, silk flags for dancing and twirling! We provide the dyes and various blank silk items, and we will teach you how to apply the liquid dyes to create your own one of a kind colorful creation. Also included in the workshop fee are personalized lessons in dancing and playing with your new weighted flags.
