A well-organized presentation.
I have had an unused shadow box on my closet shelf for over two years now, but I’m feeling confident enough to take it down and have at it! Thank you.

The class was very helpful and intuitive. You can create many memories with collected items and add them with a personal touch in a shadow box effect. The class is easy to understand and the different materials used gave way to creative ideas for future projects.
