Make Something

Summer’s Workshops

Each season, I offer a small collection of workshops for women drawn to soulful making, symbolic creativity, and the magic of their own imaginations. Some happen in my West Asheville studio. Some happen live online, where we make together. And some are digital, self-paced classes, so you can work at your own pace. All of them are rooted in spirit dolls, folk art, and the kind of making in which simple materials slowly become something personal, soulful, and completely your own.

Live Online Workshops

Live, guided Zoom workshops where we make together over several sessions. Small groups, real-time guidance, and recordings are included so you can revisit the sessions anytime.

Special Summer Rate: $97

A 4-week live online workshop where we’ll make a mixed-media spirit doll from sticks, a molded clay face, fabric, fibers, beads, and found bits. We’ll build slowly, layer by layer, and let the doll reveal herself through the making. No experience needed, and no face sculpting from scratch. Live on Zoom, recordings included.

The Equinox Spirit Doll Workshop

1:00 – 4:00 PM Eastern | Live on Zoom

This is a small-group workshop for making a spirit doll as we move through the fall equinox — a season of balance, change, and listening for what wants to take shape next.

We'll work slowly, creating a doll with wire, clay, fabric, paint, yarn, and meaningful details — letting the doll take shape one layer at a time.

Registration opens in August.

Not sure where to begin?

If you want a full creative day away from ordinary life, choose a studio day.

If you want live guidance and group energy from home, choose a live online workshop.

If you want to move slowly on your own schedule, choose a self-paced class.

However you join me, the invitation is the same: come make something with your hands, follow what calls to you, and let ordinary materials become something personal, soulful, and alive.
