How To Rhinestone Like A Boss
In this workshop, you'll learn how to add rhinestones to shoes, costumes, props, and more! Gina Louise will share her tips & tricks for planning, patterning, and getting the most bang for your buck. We'll discuss different adhesives and types of stones. Students will be guided as they map out a plan and then begin the bedazzling process.
Bring your own project if you have one! If not, you may practice using our fabric swatches. Each student will receive a rhinestoning kit included in the registration fee. Additional rhinestones will be available in class for purchase, or you may bring your own. Once you learn a few secrets, you'll be a rhinestone boss in no time!
