Busy Hands Craft Group: Learn to Make Reusable Foods Wraps
Let’s “Go Green” and learn how to make reusable storage sheets. Made with cotton fabric and natural beeswax, these sheets can be molded to any shape using the natural warmth of your hands. Once used, simply wash the storage sheet with dish detergent, rinse, reshape and reuse. Enjoy making and using these pretty and environmentally friendly alternatives to plastic wrap or foil.
Our presenter is Tanette Nguyen-McCarty. She hasn’t slowed down in her retirement. She loves yoga and tai-chi, jewelry making, and helping her community with a variety of volunteer services.
This group will be taught by Diana Bangert-Drowns, a NNORC resident and artist. Diana has enjoyed numerous hobbies throughout her life, including sewing, gardening, music and visual arts.
