What do I need to bring?
Nothing but a smile! Everything will be provided for you, all you need to do is join us and have fun! Messy decorator? You can bring your own apron or just wear easy-to-wash clothing. There is a PowerPoint for reference, so if you wear glasses, I’d encourage you to bring them as well. Oh – and bring your phone – we love photos!
