Do you want to make these!?!?  I have some exciting news at the end of this post!!!!

I recently stopped by Value Village Thrift in Mooresville, NC one afternoon.  If you are in the Charlotte area this is a must stop if you heart thrift stores.  I scored 14 embroidery hoops for 4.99!

I almost had a heart attack when I saw this fabric at Mary Jo’s Cloth store in Gastonia, NC.  Again if you are in the Charlotte area and have a fabric obsession like I do you haveeeeeeeeeeeeee to go to Mary Jo’s.  It’s like a Lowe’s but all fabric and sewing notions.  I take my packed lunch with me when I go because I know I’m going to be there for a while and will need to fuel up!

I outlined the owls and the words with black thread to give it a more finished look.

Work in progress!  I call this a happy mess.  Unfortunately this room is right by the front door!

I very excited to share with you a new little adventure here at Button Bird Designs!!!!

I have always loved art and love sharing it with others.  That is why I love doing this blog so so so much.  I have dreamed and dreamed of one day owning a little art boutique and teaching art classes.  Not quite there on the owning a shop yet (YET I SAY) but I would like to go ahead and start teaching art classes!!!

 I will be announcing different types of  day and evening art classes for adults and children that will take place in my home.  If you would like a private party with your friends I will come to you with all supplies, or you can book a private art class at my house!

So the first class I am offering is…..

Embroidery Hoop Owls Art Class      $25.00

Tuesday, February 5th    10:00-12:0         

Just in time for Valentine’s day!  Make this adorable hoop owl for a friend, child, or keep for yourself.  Grab a friend and join me at my house for a morning of creating and fun!  All supplies will be provided as well as all the fancy water and coffee you can drink.  Don’t come hungry.  I will not make anything to eat because I don’t want you to leave sick (and I hate to cook).

Hope you will join me!  So so so so so super excited!

If you have any questions or would like to sign up please send me an email at buttonbirddesigns@gmail.com

If you don’t want to make your own and would like to purchase one of my Hoop Owls please visit my Etsy shop or my cubbie at Sanctuary of Davidson!

    I’m totally coming! I just wrote it on my calendar. My two year old is in preschool Tues/Thurs from 9:30-1:00 so the timing couldn’t be more perfect.

    I’ll email you but COUNT ME IN. :) :)

    I love those by the way. And I love your LOVE sign too!

      Would you be interested in a weekend class! I have had a couple of teachers mention this would work better!
