Holiday Craftogethers
I had this idea to put together little mini-classes for the holiday season that sisters, friends, mothers & daughters or other couples could come do together. My first idea was to call the “Crafternoons” but I opted for Craftogethers instead. I guess it is a good thing I did because I’ve since found out that Crafternoons was already taken. Great minds and all that I guess (I think I should just write a book.)
Would you like to make gifts or holiday decorations for yourself and others but just don’t want to bother with getting the supplies, making a mess in your house and then having to clean up that mess? The holidays are hectic enough without the added hassle of all that. Instead, take an afternoon off and join us at My Eclectic Mess in St. Charles for two hours of crafting fun. We’ll provide all the supplies, know-how and best of all, the clean up!
This is the perfect activity to share with your child, sister, mother, best friend or neighbor. You’ll get time together to share in the making of memories as well as the cool crafts you’ll complete.
