Sorry for the short notice. That's completely the group administrator's fault and not the event organizer's.

Time: 12:00 P.M - 5:00 P.M Saturday, March 9th
Five Available slots. Contact me privately to reserve one. (limited parking, see end of post)
Class will be held in my home.
Address: 42 Gregory St Lake Linden MI (roughly 12 miles from the houghton/hancock location) For directions please contact me privately
Required supplies:
1 Role of Upholstery Foam (Can be purchased at walmart for $17) Near polyfill
Hot glue sticks (preferably large, though if bringing your own glue gun whatever size you need)
A spool of black or brightly colored Upholstery Thread.
1 Cotton Balaclava (Can be purchased at most sporting stores for $10)
1 Packed Lunch: If you intend to be at the class all afternoon it is recomended you bring something to at least snack on! I will have water and maybe some soda set aside for you guys but anything extra should be brought with. If you need something refrigerated or frozen please tell me ahead of time so I can make space. Only Microwavable or cold served items please.
Advised Items-
A thin coat or Hoodie. (We will be working in my unheated basement, and only aloud upstairs for bathroom breaks.) You do not what something to poofy simply because it can get in your way while working.
Warm boots/shoes/slippers. For the same reason above.
Thin Gloves- This is mostly for safety reasons, I myself do not use gloves when hot gluing, but have suffered countless painful burns. I will not be held responsible for any injuries that happen if you dont want to work with burning hands these are highly suggested!
A hot drink cup- If you guys would like Hot coco or tea I will be willing to make upstairs trips and make it for you. it may make the experience more enjoyable to have a hot drink.
Metalic Paint- For those of you who would like to add realistic eyes (For a payment of $5 each) Please pick up some metallic paint of your own color choices. I currently have Gold, Purple, Green, and Silver.
Tote bag- Some sort of bag to keep your supplies in while not in use.
Reference Sheets- Of both species and individual characters. This will help me help you, and also be a useful guide while constructing your costume.
Helpful Items.
I have limited supplies here. Which include 2 pairs of scissors, One hot glue gun and limited paint colors.
If you guys have extra scissors, glue guns, or anything else that may be used by more than one person feel free to bring it. even if you only want to use it yourself, it will give others the option to use other supplies and make learning much more quick and easy. Please mark your items with a little bit of masking tape and your name so they can be returned to you upon departure.
Helpfull items include.
- Hot glue guns
-Scissors
- Sewing Needles (I should have plenty but extras never hurt!)
- Metalic, and black paint colors.
Hot drinks.
As said before I am willing to make hot drinks for everyone, but only if the packets are supplied. If someone feels like bringing some Hot coco powder, Tea bags, Or Ground Coffee. feel free. any food or drink items will be accepted excluding Alcoholic ones.
Proper Conduct.
My parents are being very generous in allowing strangers in our home, and my family as a whole very trusting. The following should not need to be mentioned and simply expected, but to be safe I am going to list some rules bellow.
-No going upstairs without the permission of Myself, or another helper (I may have 1-2 friends there to assist us)
- Please refrain from stating any offensive opinions. This includes Relgious, political, sexual. ect ect. a casual conversation is fine, but if someone looks uncomfortable or I say to leave a topic alone please do so.
- No Alcohol, or Tobacco products. My home is free of both. if you need to smoke, please go out to your car and do so. (Dispose of all smoking waste inside your car)
- No pets permitted
- No "Tag alongs" Please dont bring your friends, or parents. if you are underage and parents are concerned I can provide more information to them personally about the location.
- No stealing, causing destruction of property or doing anything else which would classify you as a turd sandwitch.
There is limited parking space and class registration is on a first come, first serve basis. I will not be making pick ups so it will be your responsibility to either carpool or have a ride here and back. I have enough room for 2-3 people to park in my front lawn. please state how you are planning to get here in your attendance request.
For more information, please see the post on the UPFurry Facebook, or better yet, the new Fursuitassist page.

Thanks! I'm embarrassed to say that I've had a hard time keeping names and FA accounts straight since all you newer folks came in.
