Kat Kirby Workshops | June 2025

9am-1pm

Gelli Printing with Kat!

Join in the Gelli Printing craze and create your own papers to use in collages, journals, altered books, cards, tags, and more.

You will learn how to prepare the Gelli Plate, choose aints and stencils, and make a series of prints that will be unique and fun. We will even use some household objects such as bubble wrap and jar lids to create interesting patterns.

Dress for a mess.

A $10 materials fee is payable to the instructor at the
first class.

Price for class: $40.00

June 11
9am-3pm

Upcycled Books, AKA Junk Journals

Let’s create new journals from old books! This is a wonderful way to create something wonderful from what could become a landfill.

Using a hard-covered book, you will learn how to deconstruct it successfully by removing the text block. You will then reinforce the spine and create signatures (groups of papers to form the pages) using a variety of papers. Once that’s finished, decide how to organize your pages, and we will discuss the various options. Using some book-binding tools, I
will show you how to stitch in the signatures and create the inside covers.

Bring a hard-cover book, around 5″ x 8″, with a spine no wider than 1.5″. Choose a
book whose cover you like; we will leave them as they are.

A $20 materials fee is payable to the instructor at the first class.

Price for class: $55.00

June 18
9am-3pm

Create a Collage Master Board

I love making these master boards, using various papers and paints, stamps and stencils, doodles and marks. I will show you how to create your own unique collage on a large piece of paper.

After adding several layers, and once your board is finished, we will then use some templates to make bookmarks, tags, and cards. Or artwork to hang on your wall.

A $10 materials fee is payable to the instructor at the first class.

Price for class: $45.00

June 25
9am-4pm

Mixed Media Treasure Box

This is a fun and easy class. You will embellish a simple box with charms, beads, gems, glass, and more!

Bring a small box with a lid, which you can find at a crafts store or charity shop. It can be made
of glass, metal, or wood. It should be no larger than 6” across on the top surface, but if it is, you can finish it at home.

I will have a few boxes for sale if you don’t have one or don’t have the time to shop for one.

Go through your jewelry box, junk drawer, bead collections, and bring along whatever you think
you’d like to include.

I will have a myriad of materials for you and my magic adhesive, which means you won’t have to grout anything!

A $20 materials fee is payable to the instructor at the first class.

Price for class: $65.00
