It’s National Brownie Day, so there’ll be more baking, of course. Let’s organize this first and get our space smelling amazing with a couple batches of chocolatey goodness in the oven. Our second activity today is creative writing with prompts + simple words games like Mad Libs.
M – December 1: Leatherworking
This week, we’ll learn to create an artisan sheath for knives or scissors by shaping, sewing, stamping + burning leather. We will need a couple of large boards and a self-healing cutting mat to protect our tables (you have one, please bring it!), but this is a loud process that uses sharp instruments! We’ll set up a cutting + pounding + stamping stations outside.
