A Handmade Holiday
The first 50 people in the door get a goody bag,
including a ticket to participate in the star craft for free!
We wanted to show you a couple of the crafts that you can participate with us in! First we have a Moravian star. These look awesome on a tree! We will show you how to make your own and even send you home with the directions to make more!
(there is a small fee for this craft)
We will also be putting together these little bottle cap tags for you to attach to packages, keychains, or whatever else you can think of! They can be personalized or left just Christmas-y. (there is a small fee for this craft)
We also have one more craft available (there is a small fee for this craft).
Plus don't forget the handmade artists that will be selling their goods on Saturday too! There will be lots of unique items, perfect for Christmas shopping!
All of the proceeds from the crafts go directly to help our MOPS group provide ongoing services for local moms! We hope you can join us!
