What We Offer

We are two sisters who have a passion for crafts and a desire to teach the
skills we have learned through the years. Our main focus is to have fun exploring in a very non-judgmental environment new experiences and making new friends. We provide a relaxed setting to have fun following along as we create a beautiful finished product all are amazed they were able to create!
Painting is a safe and fun craft. Pyrography/wood burning is done using very hot “irons” so there is inherent danger but handled with all safety precautions and respect we can have a fun and safe learning experience as well.
We are two sisters. Darlene Abshire and Rhonda Dexter. Our mother started us on crafts as toddlers. Darlene drifted toward painting as her main focus, although she has tried her hand at various crafts through the years. Rhonda is more eclectic as she prefers to keep trying whatever strikes her fancy. The most treasured crafts have been drawing, needlework and pyrography. Darlene has hosted parties for many direct sales companies. Rhonda is a teacher at heart.
Come join us to make an item to show off in a fun environment intended primarily for relaxation and fun.

We will accomplish a lot in the two to four hours(pyrography is two, two hour sessions) we will spend. We’ll meet new friends, joke and share snacks, and get down to painting or burning with a smile on our faces and when you leave our desire is that you have spent two hours relaxing and forgetting outside cares and concerns. The main thing is come with the will to enjoy and be adventurous. We will have fun.
