This day is intended to work on your show-aufguss with the help of Sigrid, as you can see there’s 2 hours per person which is not a lot, therefore we give you the opportunity to send an email to sigrid@aufgusscreations.com with questions you may have, so Sigrid could be able to prepare something. We’d like to use these hours as best we can.
