Get Holiday Ready   

The Zentangle® Method is an easy-to-learn, relaxing, and fun way to create beautiful images by drawing structured patterns called tangles. This beautiful, artistic, mindfulness practice increases focus and creativity and provides artistic satisfaction, along with an increased sense of personal well-being. 

In this class, you will use Zentangle to decorate a tea light that will bring the warmth of the holiday season into your home. Or make it a lovely gift for someone special. This class is suitable for beginner and experienced tanglers alike.

This holiday season, learn to prepare some unique and simple treats for entertaining or to give as gifts. Start with a gorgeous "homemade" bread wreath using refrigerator biscuits, with a variety of serving options, which is sure to be the center of attention on your holiday table.  Next, combine flavorful ingredients to make boozy rum truffle balls and package them so that they are ready for gift-giving.  Adding to the fun, we will create an apple sauce dough to make fragrant ornaments that are also an easy craft to do at home with kids and grandkids!   While we are working, let's sip traditional hot spiced Glühwein and experience first-hand why this German drink is called "glow wine." This is a mostly demonstration class with some hands-on opportunities. Everyone will taste all of the treats, learn the tricks to create them at home, and go home with a small box of rum truffle balls, a few ornaments, and all of the recipes.

What could be a prettier centerpiece for your holiday table than a traditional Bûche de Noël or Yule Log? You'll learn how to make and assemble every component of this festive creation, from the chocolate buttermilk sponge to the rich buttercream and the dark chocolate ganache used to decorate it. Each student will get a small, pre-made one to decorate on their own and take home.
