Holiday & Party Craft

Excellent information and presentation! Easy to follow and understand. Love the science of it all and very through. Loaded with insight and information. Fun course!

Glad that I saw this, now! I love pumpkins!! Looking forward to the season You show a lot of great, and super creative techniques that I can't wait to try. Thank-you!

I really enjoy Robert Mahar's classes. He's an excellent tutor, very encouraging and always does such fun and interesting projects. My 8yo daughter and I have been working on these Himmeli this afternoon. Will take another couple of goes before Im ready to post the picture. But a very enjoyable class

Omg I can't not hear her smacking and the word um :( I don't mean to be hurtful but her content was there but I couldn't make it more then half way At one point I swear she was doing the smacking or tsk on purpose. Maybe if that was worked on people could appreciate how great the content is?

This class was exactly what I needed to re-gain confidence in hand lettering. I majored in illustration 10+ years ago and while I did take a typography class in school, it's been many years and I was feeling rusty and nervous about hand lettering. This class refreshed my memory on various typography principles and gave me ideas on various styles I can reference to create my own lettering. I love the format where I can watch her example and then try it for myself - it's like training wheels and works perfectly for me as a visual learner. Annica is obviously a pro at what she does and she's also really good at explaining what she's doing and why. I am really happy with this class and thankful to Annica for sharing her knowledge and experience.

I’ve been making soap for a few years and came across this class while looking on Creative Live. It was on sale so I bought. I walked away with new knowledge and things I had never heard or just forgot over the years. Great great class!!

Really engaging teacher and such a fantastic craft. I've gone on to make a tonne of these with my family and they make such a wonderful gift

Stumbled across this class and was wowed by it. Such a cleaver idea and so easy to make. Robert is a great teacher and covers all the details with ideas of how to make it easy.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course. Annica clearly knows her stuff and explains well how to draw the different types of letters. I'm very inspired and will be continuing to learn how to draw letters better. Some reviewers are complaining about the f word that's in one of the slides. Man, it's just s stupid word. As an adult (parent/teacher/guardian) if you can't even explain the definition, context, and significance of that word, you've got a lot of rough years ahead of you while trying to parent or teach a young one. The inclusion of the word has no affect on the content of the class. Get over it! And there are complains about her nuanced delivery style. Please! Find something more significant to complain about.

Outstanding!

I learned some great hacks and tricks. Going to carve my pumpkin this year with more enthusiasm! BTW something I thought might be helpful is to push pins to hold stencil designs on pumpkin since tape doesn't work.

Please, can we have more classes with Tiffanie??

She's good at what she does. I learned a lot in this class.

Good instructor, nice materials, well organized. I would take another course with this instructor. My problem with the course was the editing? Camera choice? I didn't go to film school so I don't know if this course was a multi-camera shoot, later edited or shot like a sporting event with a director jumping from camera to camera. Whatever the case, the beginning of most demonstrations were late on getting to the paper and brush so we missed the beginning of the demonstration and as she didn't necessarily repeat every letter or number we often just missed out. Would have been great if a more lecture based sort of course but not so good for demonstration based learning.

Love these - a fab idea and a great instructor and class which talks you through step by step without getting boring. I will definitely be making these as little extra gifts for all my loved ones. Thank you for introducing me to them Robert.

Great idea.. Never heard of these, excellent idea for Christmas gifts!

Can someone PLEASE ask her to stop smacking her lips and saying Ummmmmm, it is it very distracting. It is giving me a spastic colon so I have to click off of her. Great info but her nervous tick is nerve racking.

Nice intro to brush lettering. I wish there had been more close up's of how the instructor did each letter. She seemed to brush (pun intended) over how to do some of the letters rather quickly. Overall it was an easy way to learn more about lettering in about an hour. If you're wanting an easy crash course this is a good place to start. If you're looking for something more in-depth and guided you might want to opt for a different course.

A very thorough and engaging class. I love Laura's fonts so it was really a joy to observe her process and thought behind her lettering.

The course is fun and light. I found the exercises very useful as a way to get to know how the tools work. I also enjoy seeing the work from the students and their progress. Thank you Laura! 2019 is my year for lettering.

Super interesting content and I'm looking forward to sharing what I've learned with my students. However, I am going to mention that I am cringing through this because of all the vocalized pauses by the presenter. She's adorable and does a lovely job, but the, "*lip smack* ummm..." is killing me. I know it seems nit picky, but when my students do in-class presentations, I count off for this. I'm hoping that making this comment might help presenters in the future to be aware of this really annoying and distracting habit.

Fabulous class! Tiffanie shared so many tips and has a wonderful presentation style. The results are wonderful!! The one negative is that part 3 and 4 aren't loud enough (at least for me). I wonder if that could be adjusted. Thank you so much, Tiffanie and Creative Live!

I really enjoyed seeing the process of soap making step by step, along with the explanation of how everything interacts together. Awesome class!

A hands on experience. A fun structure and a great teacher. The only thing I wished, as I'm a newe, it would be a bit of previous explanation on some terminology - at the end I've got it, but I was a bit lost at the beggining!

I wish there was thumbs halfway icon. Yes, I'm learning some lettering tips. However, the lesson starts talking about designing a word map. I think that would make more sense at the end of the class, AFTER learning the techniques. Also, there are a few places where you can't see what the pencil is doing because the instructors hand is in the way.
