Bring some of your old junk mail to a.ware on November 6, and be prepared to leave with pretty paper. The creatives at the Phoenix art studio/storefront say the class can get a little messy, but that the results can be used in gift wrapping, book binding, and countless other projects for the holidays and beyond. The class is from 1 to 4 p.m, and costs $45.
