Creating Royalty

Alisa Burke

Inspired by the magic and symbolism of royalty throughout history we will create whimsical and one of a kind crowns made from painted canvas, found objects, scrap fabric and all kinds of recycled materials. We will find inspiration from crowns though the decades that were made from all kinds of materials as well as the symbolism behind this emblem. Be prepared to find your own meaning through painting, sewing and embellishing your own unique crown!
