Whimzy owners - Diane and Sheryl

You know you are spoiled as a teacher when you walk into  Whimzy and are greeted by Sheryl Simpson, Diane White and a plate of homemade cupcakes! Such a wonderful group of women showed up for my Coptic Journal class today.  Sometimes when I am teaching - I pause and am so grateful that I get to share my passion for art with other like-minded souls. Thank you, ladies, for a great class!

My Assistant

Coptic Journal Class is this Saturday

I have the privilege of teaching at Whimzy this Saturday.

The class teaches how to make Coptic Journals from vintage books.

I had someone ask me what do you use the journals for? 

My response?

EVERYTHING!

There are so many different uses...

 As a calendar in my purse

Place for quick painting ideas  

and quick sketches along with inspiration pages

They also make great gifts, recipe books, wedding journals, scrapbooks...

and I should warn you--making these journals is HIGHLY addictive.
