Join me for a two-part workshop that blends meditation and creative weaving as you bring your own Spirit Doll to life. We’ll begin by connecting with your older, wiser self to explore a matter of personal importance, allowing insight and intuition to gently guide your process. From this place of inner wisdom, you will weave a Spirit Doll that is uniquely yours. Over time, you may find a special relationship forming. As you gaze upon your doll during moments of reflection, they become a reminder that your own inner guidance is always present, always available, and always with you. Participants will have the use of a loom throughout the two-part workshop. The loom must be returned at the end of the second class. Please note that a bit of additional weaving at home will be necessary before attending the second class. A material fee of $25 must be paid to the instructor on the first night of the class which includes the loom rental.

Time permitting you'll paint a custom illustration created by Catherine and printed on watercolor paper. You'll leave this fun class with enough experience to continue your watercolor journey. *There is a $10 materials fee payable to the instructor on the day of the workshop.
