DIY Classes for the DIY Bride

post from My Splendid $10,000 Wedding by Vera Devera | budget wedding on 10 February 2012 04:18:00 PM. © My Splendid $10,000 Wedding by Vera Devera | budget wedding

I am a big fan of Workshop SF because they help you tap into your inner-craft-child!
This past Tuesday, I took Sewing 101 at Workshop SF. For a DIY-liter like me, I needed to refresh my skills on how to sew by hand and machine. Carmen, the teacher, is also a visual manager for Anthropologie on 4th and Market and teaches this class in her spare time. After 3 hours on the Janome, I now feel more comfortable with sewing by machine (it's easier than I expected) and I can't wait to start making my own pillows and baby shower gifts. In fact, I went out and bought a Brother (35 stitch) on HSN the next day for $99!
My PBR Beer Koozy - Project #1 at Workshop SF If you're planning on making table runners, napkins, etc for your own wedding and are a novice, then don't hesitate to take this class. It's one of their more popular ones and fills up quickly. The price can't be beat at $38.
A DIY project that requires sewing skills! via Project WeddingMore classes that are geared towards the DIY bride are being taught by one of my go-to wedding floral designers: Pilar Zuniga of Gorgeous and Green. Plus, she's just launched her online store, so if you can't get to her brick and mortar retail location on San Pablo Ave in Berkeley, you can satisfy your fix for terrarium or other locally-made prettiness.Bouquet by Gorgeous and Green Events; (c) 2011 Stephen Hughes Photography
