It’s our last week here together! We’ll celebrate with a potluck lunch, exchange white elephant gifts + load our homeless holiday bags.

M – December 8: Chocolate-Fueled Writing

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.

M – November 17: Bracelets + Stone Soup

This week, we’ll all be bringing beads and bracelet miscellany to craft together. We’ll set up a table of shared materials to pull from + get to work. If you have any weird beads or buttons you can add to our arrangement, please bring them along. We’ll also be braiding friendship bracelets with embroidery thread, if you have any colors you’d like to share as well. Muffin tins work well as organizers for the various bead colors/varieties, and we’ll need some tape to hold the embroidery arrangements down while we work.
