Learn the art of modern calligraphy and hand-lettering while creating personalized gift tags, hand-lettered cards, and festive envelope designs perfect for the holiday gift-giving season! This fun and relaxed workshop is designed for beginners of all ages, with no prior lettering or art experience necessary.

Throughout the workshop, participants will apply their new skills to a collection of seasonal paper goods that can be customized for a variety of celebrations, traditions, and occasions throughout the holiday season.

In addition to creating custom gift tags, participants will personalize pre-made greeting cards and explore creative envelope addressing styles that add a thoughtful, elegant touch to holiday cards, invitations, thank-you notes, and special gifts.
