makerspace, workshops and marketplace for
mixed media, art and jewelry

Notes from Andrea...

 

Hard to believe it is already mid October.  As the year comes to a close I'm looking forward to hosting some holiday themed workshops.

 

Please consider following my Pinterest board for Giftmaker Fair and commenting on the pins you like the most.  This will help me narrow down the projects to offer. 

 

Giftmaker Fair at A Work of Heart is set up as stations for making handmade gifts.  You pay a studio fee for your time and then for each gift you make.  Usually the gifts are priced between $2 and $15 each.  We give you an opportunity to pre-order which projects you think you want to do ahead of time but you can also come and pick on the spot while supplies last.  

 

I have one day of Giftmaker Fair already scheduled and am bound to schedule more.  Need something to do the day after Thanksgiving?  Beat the crowds and MAKE your gifts here.
