Learn how to book time with the Kingwood Library’s Mayku Vacuum Former. This orientation session will introduce participants to vacuum forming services in the library, and the basics on how to create your own uniquely-shaped plastic molds. Those who complete the class will then be able to request time to use a vacuum former at HCPL branches, at which time they will complete a short machine-specific orientation at the location of their choice. Attending this orientation is mandatory before patrons can request time to use a vacuum former.

Similar to cross-stitch and paint-by-numbers, diamond painting is creating a sparkling masterpiece as easy as affixing vibrantly colored resin rhinestones to a self-adhesive canvas. The canvas is printed with the design as well as symbols to let you know exactly which color to place in each spot. 

For the winter edition of diamond painting, we will be making a hot cocoa keychain.

All supplies provided.

Registration and attendance for patrons ages 18+ only.

In case you're wondering: A zine (pronounced zeen) is a small, handmade, self-published booklet that anyone can create. It can include drawings, stories, poems, photos, or anything you want. Zines are usually made by photocopying the pages and folding or stapling them together. Think of it as a DIY mini-magazine where you’re the writer, editor, and artist all in one.
