Rock gardening at Lemon Creek Wildflower Preserve
Join the folks at Lemon Creek Wildflower Preserve for a rock garden workshop from 9 a.m. to noon on May 31 with Bonnie Stuhlmiller. They will provide the paint, brushes, cocktail napkins, mod podge for decoupage and different types of acrylic pens for group use. Everyone is welcome, though, to bring their personal supplies as well.
Participants are encouraged to bring rocks or shells to decorate. River rocks are ideal, because they take paint well and are easier to draw on. Parchment paper is also good to work on , so be sure to bring a sheet or two along with you if you wish. They will also have paper towels, garbage bags and a few coloring books to use as examples for drawing. Decoupage takes a bit of time to dry, so workshop instructor Bonnie Stuhlmiller will take these items home to coat with spray.
Participants will need to make arrangements for pickup or for donation of their finished rocks to the Labyrinth on the Hill rock garden. Everyone is welcome to participate and bring along creative ideas.
Lemon Creek Wildflower Preserve is located at 3321 Gasparilla Pines Boulevard, Englewood, Fl. Go to lemonbayconservancy.org /event/rock-gardening-workshop/ for more information.
