Welcome to our 3rd. Annual Christmas craft adventure 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 has offered support, compasion and love from DG members, this workshop was meant as a play day as few can get together..the project is simplified so that even if you've never done a craft, you too can make the project!

The idea of this workshop came a few years ago when I was teaching '1 day Make and Take' workshops at home for family and friends when some of the girls here at DG said how they wish they could attend, that was impossible, so together we came up with a plan...an on-line workshop...

In 2007 we did a 'santa' sleigh workshop..my responsibility was to prepare kits and ship to each of the participants...we picked a day where I would sit at my computer and we'd all work on same project, I'd post step by step and answer questions where needed...I was thrilled with the outcome..I did however have to charge a $20.00 fee to cover cost of materials and shipping...

Here are some of the 2007 Santa Sleighs..note it's very difficult to actually see that the victorian santa's are material and not painted...
