I went to a few of these. Made a much of crap. The ones I liked and will keep are:
● A tote bag with stencil (it's harder than it seems: too much ink, it smugs; too little, it takes forever. Need to clean the palette after each color...)
● A candel with dried flowers (it's easier than it seems: just press hard, push the flower onto the wax. I broke quite a few delicate flowers.)
● A mini pumpkin with dried flowers and moss (glued on top)
