Each year around the holidays, we put together workshops and events to help gift-givers source sustainable, local or re-used gifts. Our workshop this Saturday hits the mark to show you how to make affordable, adorable, re-used gifts, and enjoy an afternoon of making. Space is limited, so click here for details and to sign up to hold your spot!
