Making Masks with the Frouds




I didn't end up taking pictures of the workshop this time around, but here is the finished product at least. Brian, Wendy and Toby Froud offered a mask-making workshop this morning for a couple of hours. I enjoyed it quite a bit, as I always do. Brian led the workshop on his signature foliate mask technique.

It was neat to see everyones masks develop. As Brian mentioned at one point, we all received the same bases and the same colors and selections of paints and leaves. It was a treat to see how different each mask had become by the end of the workshop.

I met a fellow puppet-enthusiast there. Her name is deanna and she traveled to Eugene from Washington for a couple of workshops and the upcoming Faerieworlds event this weekend. It was exciting to share thoughts on puppets as we are both relatively new to their world. She said that she took a workshop in Seattle from Dmitri Carter. It was a name I haven't heard yet and it let me down and interesting surfing path on-line.

I can't wait to see what workshops the Frouds offer next year. Faerie blessings to all!

Balloons at the Saturday Market

The Saturday Market has been running for a month and a half now and we are having a blast! Here is a fellow vendor who purchased a customized fairy for his sister-in-law.

This little girl was just tickled to have our entire butterfly princess package that includes a crown, wings and a matching butterfly wand. Her sister was just as happy with a little unicorn!

The mermaid is one of our most popular designs (behind our Spiderman parody of course!) The dragon to follow is just something that I came up with at home to see what would happen!
