It's Vision Boarding Season! Come to A Little Beacon Space to collect your clippings from Tin Shingle's magazine collection, and take your collage to your next Vision Board event or party. You can Vision Board anything, but now is Resolution time.
Vision Boarding is when you have an idea or a direction you’d like to go in, and you need help shaping that concept with pictures, words, or letters. When using a magazine for Vision Boarding, you open the pages of the magazine and explore the imagery inside - imagery that you have maybe never imagined before, but speaks to you. Fabric, makeup applications, nail polish drips, trucks driving through golden fields of wheat, strawberry shortcakes, etc. Information >
