Hey Crafters! Thursday Craft Night is a go, but Friday is cancelled this week.

Look at these cute little corn cob pins! They are only 1 inch long and intended for placing appliqué before sewing it on to your project. I just needed you to see how cute they are and mention how cute they are so this post may make it past the judgmental eyes of the internet robots. Did it work?

No spoiler pics before the wedding, but the gown is Albee by .clothing for anyone interested. ✌🏻

Join us for Gallery Walk / First Friday, to celebrate our May artist: With A Grain of Salt!

They will be making their signature skeleton key jewelry by custom request, so start your evening here to place your order, take a gander at the other neighborhood galleries, then pick up your custom piece at the end of the night.

A perfect gift for graduation or Mother’s Day, ijs…

You know we hate buying new stuff! Who needs to shop the apps or the chains when there is already more than enough to go around if we work as a community? Whether you are moving, spring cleaning, or just upgrading, we’d love to be considered before you take it to the thrift.

- Please send pics before dropping off large items, or if you have something we may like that isn’t on this list (office supplies, craft supplies, other cute furniture pieces 👀, clothing racks, etc.)

- Drop-off times are Tues/Weds 12-6pm, and Thurs/Fri 6-8pm (or coordinate with us!)

- Clothing donations will be given directly to LGBTIQ+ people in need via multiple outreach programs. (If you are in need, let us know!)

Inspired by the incredibly talented people at , we have a special announcement:

We will no longer be accepting AI-generated fashion images with project proposals! Not only is the process unethical and makes me sad (wow, I should be able to stop right there…) but robots are absolutely TERRIBLE at simulating the drape of fabric, nor can they understand gravity’s effect on fabric. AI-generated fashion images are completely fantastical (and I mean that in a bad way), which sets all of us up for failure from the very beginning— Failure on our part to be able to deliver what the client is expecting, and failure on the client’s part in expecting an unrealistic outcome.

Please hire artists to do art. I would 100% rather see a poorly scribbled-on photograph, several chopped up Vogue editorials taped back together, or a Barbie with fabric scraps hot-glued to her body than ever see another creepily-smooth, 47-layer, unidentifiable lace-patterned bu****it internet dress ever again.

Maybe it’s perimenopause, maybe it’s Maybelline, but I’m in my spicy era, now. Ok, bye! ✌🏻
