Hello!  Fall greetings to you.  I hope the fall has been good to you and your creative juices are flowing.

  Please read this e-mail carefully, as it will map out the current process of our registration process.

Rachel is a great instructor and in demand.  She is such a fabulous instructor and so well liked, it is a real crunch for you to get in to her classes. If you think that not getting signed up the first moment, RELAX, you never know and frequently there are spaces open.

You may also know and realize that Gary and I are not at the studio daily.  Having you come to the studio or call can be challenging.  This process will eliminate the frustration of getting a busy tone!!  Someone is usually in the studio all day Tuesday and all day Wednesday.  However I do not want to tie up Rachel’s teaching time on a Tuesday.

Here goes:

Registration will be ONLINE through e-mail.  All e-mails are time and dated stamped. So the first come first served will be a no brainer. Nothing before 8AM of 12/3/19 a Tuesday will be in the queue.

REGISTRATION HAS NOT BEGUN until 12/3/19  This list will be sent by 11/30/19.

There will be questions to be filled in on the e-mail containing the schedule.  When you sign up for a class, fill out the necessary questions & I will send a PAY PAL invoice for the deposit.  This is a safe and secure way to send us your $50.00.  The invoices will be sent to persons in the order that I receive the e-mails (date & time).

IF you send in the registration and prefer to pay by check, if you are in the time and date queue, I will notify you and you can then send a check.  If we do not receive the check in 5 days, the next person in line will be notified.

If you wish to sign up for more than one class,  I will send the invoice reflecting that amount due.

Thank you all so much! This system has been working now for 2 years!

Update for WARG ETC:
We have closed the tool and supply store segment of WARG ETC as of 4/1/17
After 14 years we have seen an evolution / trend that tends more strongly to
sales on the internet as opposed to brick & mortar.
Bear with us as Pauline ties to update this web site to be accurate with our transitioning out of the showroom aspect.
                           Thank you all for your support over the years!

We will be growing our online store on this site to carry the many unusual and specialized tools we have been known for &/or developed.
PAULINE'S MATTING AND CHASING TOOLS ARE OF PARTICULAR FOCUS.
Soon, they will be featured here.

Classes will be continued in full force.  Rachel, Pauline and Mig will be teaching on a regular basis year round.  Supplies will be available on site as needed for each class. Also on special order.

Our classroom is now in the space that is currently our classroom #8 Oak Hill Plaza, Scarborough, Maine.  The entrance is on the side of the building, facing  the backside of ACE hardware.
We will post class schedules on this site regularly.
Pauline will be working hard on her new line of fARTlekjewelry® in her home studio.  Our office will also be in our home.  We will be in the studio @ Oak Hill during classes, by appointment or by chance.
