BUCKSKIN TANNING THE NATURAL WAY
Come learn the ancient art of making brain tanned buckskin! In this three day workshop each person will tan a deer hide in the way that the Native Americans did it for centuries. Today, most deer skins end up being wasted and thrown in the dump. By turning them into a revered piece of art, we honor the deer. You will go home with a baby soft piece of material that would make a mama proud! Braintan is highly cherished and revered in some circles and sells for a pretty penny~ but it is doubtful that you will want to part with your first one! It can be used to make beautiful clothes, bags, moccasins, sandals, blankets, necklaces, etc. The class will be taught by expert brain tanner and instructor Christina Gorden.
Donation includes the three day workshop, some farm fresh local organic meals, lodging, and materials. We will have a potluck dinner on Saturday night. Supper will be provided Sunday night and breakfast will be provided Sunday and Monday morning. Everyone is responsible for their own lunches.
After you sign up you will receive directions to Concentric Rings as well as a detailed list of what to bring.
