You will create a fun, funky, or whimsical owl. You will paint a piece of wood or leave it natural. You will then attach repurposed pieces to it, such as wood, tools, screws, jewelry, cans, bottle caps, feathers, ribbon, flowers, or fabric to decorate your piece. What you use is all up to you. Your final piece will make a great conversational piece or gift. All supplies are provided. Please bring a glue gun if you have one.
