“Inspired by beautiful vintage holiday decorations of days gone by, Tiffanie will teach you how to make wonderful and festive mock-vintage metallic bulb reflectors for your holiday twinkle lights. In this workshop, you will learn to laminate metallic crepe paper, cut, form, and layer a variety of reflector shapes, and create a nostalgic but fresh string of holiday light adornments for your home or to use as a gift. Bring your twinkle lights if possible for best fit (not required, but helpful).

All skill levels welcome, but please note we will be using X-Acto knives and a little elbow grease to cut through the layers of paper. Cutting mats and knives will be provided for your use.

Tiffanie Turner is an architect, artist, and performer who began working passionately in paper last year. Since then, her work has appeared on numerous art and lifestyle blogs, the San Francisco Chronicle, One Kings Lane, and in her recent San Francisco solo gallery show entitled HEADS. Tiffanie has taught classes for Martha Stewart Living and online for creativeLIVE, and currently teaches workshops in several different paper techniques around the Bay Area and beyond under the moniker papel SF.”
