About the Offering

Mondays from 5pm-6pm (Eastern) on August 4th, 11th, 18th, and 25th.

In this 4-week workshop we will learn different gel printing techniques such as layering and photo transfers to create paper covers to make a writing journal. We will then learn two binding techniques to complete the journals. We will have a mindful journal practice with prompts, and finally learn how to start an effective gratitude practice as part of a self-care routine. We will be working on making two journals, one to keep and one to share.
