Designer Purse Class

                                                               June 26-27, 2010

1714 South Miami Blvd. Durham, NC.

During this two day class we will create the beautiful purse holding a champagne bottle that you see in the photo attached. We will cover carving, stacking, ganaching, covering in fondant, decorating, and making and placing the bottle.

Class will start at 9 am each day and go 8-10 hours each day. Please be prepared for 10 hour days, in order to be able to complete this project in a quality manner. Lunch will be provided both days, but you are welcome to bring your own food, drinks and snacks as well.

Class cost is $300. We are accepting a 50% deposit at this time, which is non-refundable. The balance will be due 6 weeks before the class date. If the minimum number of students is not reached, the class will be canceled and all deposits refunded. Please do not make travel plans or reservations until we proclaim that the class minimum has been met and the class is 100% confirmed a go.

Preliminary supply lists are include below. When it gets a little bit closer to the class, a more detailed list with exact quantities of each item needed will be provided.
