West Elm sponsored a Craft Lake City workshop by artist Shantel Nielson of The Pink Raffy taught participants how to create beautiful bows made out of fabric, ribbon, and felt. Bows can decorate gift wrapping and be used again and again. Visit The Pink Raffy on etsy. Visit www.craftlakecity.com for information on future workshops. All photos + slide deck by Gail Jessen at www.aseriesofadventures.com + Instagram @fourthirtyam.
