Pre-Convention Workshop Day 3

Here we are on Day 3 of the Pre-Convention Workshops and there are so many fabulous classes that I'm truly jealous to not be taking them all. I have had such a good time walking around and looking at all the classrooms and listening in to all the wonderful advice and seeing the techniques first-hand.

 

Pete Boorum's Kentucky Side Table Workshop.



The Magic of the Drill Press taught by Tom Walden.



Everyone crowded around to see the "magic."



Tribute to Van Gogh taught by Gwen Campbell.





LED Lit Southern Dollhouse 1/144th scale by Charlotte Atcher.



1/4" They Flew the Coop taught by Jo Dewane.



They Flew the Coop chicken stand.



Ginger Landon Siegel's Elegant Bath Shop Workshop.



This evening I'll post more workshop photos and other sneak peeks but I'll close with this...      

See all these wonderful boxes?  These are the centerpieces patiently waiting for tomorrow's opening luncheon.  I know you are going to love each and everyone of them.  They are all so wonderful.  We can each only keep our fingers crossed that we will be the winner of the centerpiece at our table!

So until later tonight when I post the next batch of pictures, have a lovely day and keep mini-ing!

Talk to you soon!
