Welcome to I hope our 1st craft venture together..keep in mind that it's a fun day, it's the memories of sharing and not the actual piece..it will be a 'treasure' that over the years when you take out your Christmas decorations that you will remember us, your Dave Garden friends who have over this past year shared dreams, laughs,tears...each and every one of you have offered support, compasion with love in your hearts...regardless of the outcome of this project, what you will have gained is being in each others lives however far apart we are..

This being said, get comfy, make sure you are wearing glad rags, you've a coffee/tea in hand, I've made us muffins (can you smell them)..hmmm..they were made just for you...

Before we start we'll prepare our craft table ...

Do you have something old covering your work space?

You need 3 or 4 meat trays or paper plates or anything similar to put your paint on...

If you've a hairdryer, get it out...

I put my piece on something to raise it (I used kleenex box) but anything will do..makes it easier to do the edges...

Now, if doing 1 sleigh, I cut out about 8 pieces of your plastic wrap - maybe 2' long and set each one nearby..I usually put them on chairs, table etc. trick is...don't let them glue themselves together..lol..because they must be easily accessed...

Did you decide to wear gloves??? if so we're ready!!!!
