Oak and lamb
If you are looking for the skills that are required to do the projects that I do for Sparkle Dumpster Studios, look no further than Oak and Lamb. With a fantastic YouTube Channel, O&L provides free tutorials and live demonstrations of projects using the same tech I use, plus more. They even have a membership with courses and files included at their website, There are a lot of resources for art and crafting online but none with a community and leaders like O&L.
Creative sewing studio
For anyone at this site that is local to East Massachusetts and Rhode Island, a place that has inspired me to create can be found at The Creative Sewing Studio. The instructors there are phenomenal, they hold in person sewing and art workshops that are amazing and affordable, and the content shared and learned is priceless. You can see their site here and check their available classes if you are local to this area.
