Last classes in June

Rag Rugs
Come join Meg on the 27th at 11:00.
These rag rugs are a great way to dress up a room, add some color, and they are functional too. The cost is $55 (each rug requires 10-15 yards of fabric). They can be made in any color or size. Smaller versions make great dog dish pads, and hot pads. 4 spots left=)
Evening make up with Me! Friday June 26th at 5:30
Come learn about my tips and secrets for applying evening makeup. You will also learn how to apply temporary eyelashes. Eyelash extentions are great for a special event or occation. You will also be sent home with a shopping guide of where I buy all of my favorite makeup and supplies (my favorite thing in my makeup bag comes from walgreens).


Don't judge my photography

Kelli France from www.francephotography.com shared her tips and secrets on Saturday during the first Mamarazzi class at Pickled Tink.
I wasn't able to attend the Mamarazzi class on Saturday because it was so popular so don't judge these poorly planned shots. Everyone learned a lot about how to stage there family, how to make there kids smile, lighting, background, settings and so much more. Her next class is on July 11th at 1:00. Come get inspired by her whimsical style and imagination!



I think we're on to something

"All because of Meg's Birdhouses"

Pickled Tink was established from the inspriation of Meg's birdhouses and the desire to teach other women how to make them. Our first birdhouse class was last Saturday. Here is Peggy, Janice and Tracey after the class with their birdhouses. This class is becomming so popular that we are going to start having two a month! Our next class is July 25th at 10:30. There are only a couple of spots left!

I'm a BLOGGER


Okay, Okay I get it! So my lovely friends and family so graciously informed me that when you start a blog you need to update or people stop checking=( I also got advise that I need to make our blog a little more personal so people know what to expect when they come take a class at Pickled Tink.


I am new at this whole blogging thing so bare with me! For my first official blog entry I want to share some exciting news:


Were on TV! Tune into Reno Style which is on KREN on Sunday's at 9:00-1:30. If you want a good laugh they make me dance to "you ain't nothing but a hound dog." So embarrassing!


We will be on the cover of Clever magazine next month! With a two page editorial. So excited!


We have neighbors! The Tracey's (they don't like being called that, but I think it's adorable) are opening a new boutique and events lounge next door. They are opening next month! I will be posting pictures and more details soon!


The July calendar is almost finished!!! I will have it posted by the end of the week. If you don't have time to come by and sign up for classes just go to our website and sign up online=) Also, gift certificates are now available online.


I would like to introduce my business partner Meg Sindlinger. This is a picture of her mowing the lawn on Opening day in a dress. She might be mad at me for posting but I think it describes her personality perfectly. She is a hard worker with great style!!! Her birdhouse classes are filling up fast so hurry and sign up today. She has a 3 more opening for this Saturday from 10:30-2:30. It's only $85 and you get to take home a piece of art. These birdhouses are one of a kind. Come join Meg and let her show you how to release your creativity!
Also the Mamarazzi class on Saturday at 1:00 with Kelli France from France photography has a couple spots left. It's only $45 and you get an hour of tips and techniques on how to take better pictures of your kids, or grand kids. You get to take home a guide book that you can keep in your camera case because you will learn so much it will be hard to remember it all!
