Concrete Leaf Classes
If you've ever talked to anyone who has made a concrete leaf with us, they can attest to how easy and fun they are, and what amazing results! - even for those folks who are a little unsure of their artistic talents. We provide all the materials and instruction - and the best part is - we clean up after you! The amazing leaf pieces are as gorgeous as they are permanent . . . durable art for your garden or home, or made into fountains. They are made with fresh, large garden leaves, which we provide, or you are welcome to bring your own. It is a great project to do as a group or family.
Please don't miss making one of these extraordinary art pieces and once you've learned the process, making more for yourself or for gifts is addicting!
The class size is limited, so sign up soon. (925) 447-0280.
