Enjoy a Summer Craft and learn a skill with Lisa Engelbrecht
Learn how to hand letter AND apply it to a wonderfully festive Bali Lantern with Lisa Engelbrecht. It’s like two workshops in one! Lisa begins by teaching a solid foundation to calligraphy and demonstrates the important points to successful decorative hand writing on fabric.
You learn how to use pens, quills and brushes. She shares tips on how to seal and write on several types of cloth, and demonstrates a variety of ‘inks’ for special effect. Lisa then creates a rich background for her hand lettering, using a few simple materials. She applies what you have learned to the construction of a collapsible Bali lantern.
The lantern is a unique creation, perfect for honoring a special occasion or just for the joy of making the lantern. It can be easily adapted to a variety of media and purposes and a great project to do with children. These lanterns are fun and beautiful!
