March 3: Build Your Own Altar Table
March 3: Build Your Own Altar Table
March 3, 10am-4pm in downtown Marshall, NC
Join me in this special class to learn how to build your own altar table. I am often commissioned to build custom altar tables for clients, and they are my favorite projects to work on. I created this class to share this special process with you. Together we will discuss our relationships to altar building and tending, and then we will work with beautiful, local live-edge slabs to create a customized altar just for you! Our tables will be constructed with a wooden top and beautiful prefabricated metal legs. All materials included.
This is a beginner class! You will be learning in a safe, supportive, and nourishing environment. (Please note that because this is a beginner class, our tables will not include drawers. The photos in the class description will be updated soon to reflect the style of table we will be making!)
This workshop involves the use of heavy-duty machinery, so participants must be attentive and willing to follow instructions.
