There are all kinds of wonderful designs that patrons can make using this technique, here are just a few examples:. There are all kinds of wonderful designs that patrons can make using this technique.

 We’ve found that waiting for the tape to fully dry before removing it is key to getting the cleanest line possible. This craft is very desirable because it’s easy to do and the results are always stunning.

 Our March program, on the other hand, will be a fun collaging program where patrons will create their very own collage based on an image that we will be providing. Patrons in the past have loved the creative freedom that collage based programs provide. 

And while you’re at it, check out some of our various craft books: -Artist's painting techniques -Craft Ideas -All things paper: simple, elegant objects made with paper.
