Sage Smudge Sticks and Turkey Feather with Leather Fan

My sage bush is enormous and thriving for its 8th year.  In this workshop, you'll Learn to Make and decorate your own Fresh Sage Sticks to burn for gifts or to keep.  You'll stack, roll and wrap, tie, decorate and dry your own smudge sticks.  You'll  also make a leather bound and tasseled turkey feather to use as a fan in your smudge burning.  You'll be thrilled with the results and so proud to give these to friends and to use them for months to come.

Have your GPS take you to 101 West Rodney French Blvd. in New Bedford.  Once there, please park on the end of the building AWAY from the main entrance.  You'll see an ORANGE door that says Mattress Handup...enter there and go up the stairs.  At the top of the stairs...follow small yellow signs for NBACE.  We're right around the corner behind the mural  !!
