¨
Club meets the 3rd Wednesday of each month
from 6:30-8:30pm.
¨
There
is an optional book that you can purchase that will be our inspiration
for crafting for that cycle.
¨
Each
meeting you will get a kit based on something from the book and you can
take it home and create something with it. The following month you will
bring your project for everyone to ooh! and ahh! over.
¨
We
will also do a fun make-and-take

cycle. If you can’t make it to a meeting, your kit will be waiting
for you at the store so you can join in the fun the next month! You are
obligated to purchase all three classes that are in a cycle. If you do
not pre-pay for all 3 at the first meeting for $65, your card number will
