Who’s excited for the Nov. 21 release of “Wicked: For Good”?! Our November Open Studio session will be dedicated to preparing for the second installment in the story of everyone’s favorite witches. Our Open Studio workshops are open house style, so stay for a few minutes, or hang out all day.
This event is not just for kids! Adults are invited to get crafty with us, whether you've got a kid with you or not.
Open Studio workshops feature crafting stations, so you can try a bit of everything, or spend longer on your favorites. We’re still finalizing our projects, but you can expect:
At least one accessory that you can wear to the theater when you see the movie.
A wall hanging that you can customize for your favorite character.
Lots of charms, trinkets and other whimsical supplies befitting the magical world of Oz.
And of course, the movie soundtrack for singing along!
All the projects are open-ended, and ready for you to put your own spin on them. There will be no official instruction, but we will offer lots of inspiration if you need it.
Tickets are $12 in advance or $15 at the door. It helps us so much to know how many people to expect, so advance tickets are discounted! Crafters 4 and under are free, but must be accompanied by a paying adult.
This is not a drop-off event. All children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

Meet and Make: A Women's Craft Social
Duration: 2 hours
Ages: 18+
Led by: Locally Crafted Workshop (@createatlocallycrafted)
When we started hosting Meet and Make workshops in July, we hoped they would be a way for women to casually connect, chat and of course, craft. We had no idea they would vault quickly to the top of our list of favorite events!
Let’s keep the connections going with our next workshop, where our co-owner, Becky, will teach some simple techniques to make felt flowers. After a demo of a few felt basics, everyone will choose a base to make an ornament or small wall hanging. Choose a fall color palette, create something to match your everyday decor, or skip straight to a winter holiday theme. We invite you to come alone or bring a friend or two for some low-key crafting and chatting. Enjoy a drink and a light snack, too.
This workshop is open to women ages 18+.

Guided step-by-step, they’ll explore enchanting ingredients like “Bottle Sunshine” and “Fairy Dust,” watch bubbling reactions come to life, and discover how simple chemistry can feel like pure magic.
Each child will also get to design their own take-home potion bottle, designing their own label and layering colors and glitter to create a one-of-a-kind elixir. This workshop is equal parts creative play, science experiment, and unforgettable fun. Perfect for curious kids who love to imagine, explore, and get a little messy! ✨

Use wool and needle-felting techniques to create an ornament that looks like your dog — you can even incorporate your dog’s fur into your project!
Needle felting is a fun and easy-to-learn craft that creates sculptures by stabbing wool with a special needle. If you can hold a needle and stab with it, you’ve got enough experience to make your dog out of wool.
Stressed about work? STAB! Mad about something? STAB! Big feelings about the news? STAB! You’ll relieve stress and finish the night with an adorable ornament to hang on your Christmas tree (or a cabinet handle, doorknob, etc.) — and enough supplies to make a second ornament at home!
Each crafter will get:
A kit with more than $40 of needle-felting supplies to take home — enough to make a dog ornament, and a patterned red and green ornament (or trade for Hanukkah blue!)
Guided instruction and hands-on help to make your dog come alive in wool
Written and video tutorials on needle felting from FeltedSky
Ask The Dog Trainer — your needle felting instructor, E. Foley, (@foleysdogtraining) is also a certified dog trainer, so feel free to ask your dog questions while you are crafting!
You should bring:
Photos of your dog's head from all angles (probably already on your phone!)
A tiny baggie of your dog's fur if you want to add it to your ornament
The desire to relieve all your stress and tell stories about your dog with your new friends
This workshop is for crafters ages 10 to adult. For children, ask yourself, "Would I trust my child with a sharp, barbed needle?" If you would, they can come! Under 13 must be accompanied by an adult.
A few other FAQs:
Q: Wool makes me itchy — can I still do this?
A: Yes! There will be disposable gloves available if you want to minimize contact with the wool.
Q: Can I make my cat instead?
A: Yes! You'll be hanging out with a lot of dog people, but we don't bite (hard).

A 5-by-5-inch bookcase ready for you to customize and embellish.
Lots of tiny books! We’ll have some mini versions of actual books — contemporary and classic — and some with plain or patterned decorative covers.
Miniature decorative items like coffee mugs and picture frames.
Christmas-, Hanukkah and winter-themed trinkets like tiny string lights, mini trees, wreaths, menorahs and more!
A buffet of supplies so you can embellish your shelves; create items like potted plants or flowers in vases; or whatever else you can dream up to make your perfect space.
Plus, you’re welcome to bring any tiny trinkets or photos to add your own touches.
We’ll also have some book-related conversation starters while you’re crafting, and a few snacks to fuel our evening. Here’s to the first of what we hope are many bookish, crafty meet-ups!

Tween Night
Duration: 2 hours
Ages: 9-12
Led by: Locally Crafted Workshop (@createatlocallycrafted)
We love our tween crafters — they’re young enough to still get excited about everything, and old enough to be trusted with our best craft supplies. So we decided to set aside an evening just for them — Tween Night.
Kids ages 9 to 12 are invited for an evening of crafts, pizza and new friends. Bring a pal, or come alone and meet other kids who love to craft. We’ll supply pizza, snacks and a soundtrack, plus cool projects using lots of fun supplies and techniques. We know it will be a night to remember, and hopefully the first of many!
Our first session will be the day of Taylor Swift’s album release, so while it won’t be an exclusively Taylor event, we will definitely honor the big event.
Crochet Pumpkins
Duration: 2½hours
Ages: 14 to adult
Led by: Becky Sher, Locally Crafted Workshop (@createatlocallycrafted)
If cozy fall decor is your vibe, let us help you create a whole bushel of squishy pumpkins to celebrate the season. Learn this incredibly simple crochet pattern and assembly technique, and you’ll be able to create custom decorations that will last for years.
In this workshop, you will:
Use basic crochet stitches to create a simple foundational piece. You’ll also learn a few new tricks, like crocheting into the back loop.
Learn how to make some quick stitches to form a pumpkin shape.
Stuff your pumpkin to optimum squishiness.
The best part — choose from our buffet of supplies to embellish your pumpkin with a stem and leaves in your personal style.
We will provide yarn, stuffing, heavy-duty needles and embellishments, along with a hook to borrow. If you’d like to bring your own hook or continue making pumpkins at home, an L or M hook will work best with the yarn we’re providing. You can use the same technique with larger or smaller yarn and hooks to create pumpkins in different sizes. These pumpkins definitely look best with friends!
A tiny bit of crochet experience will make this workshop a cinch, but confident crafters who want to learn are welcome too.

Meet and Make: A Women's Craft Social
Duration: 2 hours
Ages: 18+
Led by: Locally Crafted Workshop (@createatlocallycrafted)
We’ve seen the connections that crafters are making spontaneously in our workshops, so we thought, “why not do it on purpose?” Making friends as an adult can be … tricky, but it’s a lot easier when you’re bonding over a fun, creative activity.
And that’s the goal behind our Meet and Make workshops. Our first one was a wonderful evening of crafting and connecting, so we'd like to continue to meet and make every other month or so. We invite you to come alone or bring a friend or two for some low-key crafting and chatting.
We'll do a quick (non-scary, non-embarrassing) icebreaker so we can all get to know each other. Then we’ll provide a simple craft project that you can accomplish while holding a conversation — at this session, our co-owner, Stacey, will teach the basics of mosaics, and everyone will create a pair of custom coasters. Enjoy a drink and a light snack, too.
This workshop is open to women ages 18+.
Knitting Next Steps: Magic Loop
Duration: 2½ hours
Ages: 16+
Led by: Becky Sher (@createatlocallycrafted)
If you’ve been knitting for a while, you may have heard of Magic Loop, a technique that allows you to knit small-circumference projects in the round on a single long, circular needle. OK, that’s a lot of words. Basically, it’s a fun way to knit sleeves, socks, cup cozies, plush toys, mittens and all kinds of other things without using fiddly double-pointed needles. Magic Loop is a great tool to have in your knitting toolbox, and as a bonus, it will kind of make you feel like a magician. Plus, if socks are on your knitting to-do list, this technique is a great first step.
In this workshop, you’ll learn everything you need to know to confidently use Magic Loop. We’ll get started on a simple cup cozy pattern, so you can practice the technique on an actual project. You’ll learn how to cast on and get started (the hardest part of Magic Loop, TBH) and how to move from round to round. And we’ll discuss the (very few) things that might trip you up and how to avoid them.
NOTE: This is not a learn-to-knit workshop. You should be at least a confident beginner, able to cast on, knit and purl without a lot of assistance. But advanced knitters who have never tried the technique are absolutely encouraged to attend too!
All materials will be provided, including a 40-inch circular needle with interchangeable tips (a $17 value). That means that you can purchase other tips in different needle sizes for future Magic Loop projects. (Don’t worry, it will all become clear.)

Ages: all ages
Led by: Locally Crafted Workshop (@createatlocallycrafted)

Table space will be available, along with a few basic supplies like scissors, colored pencils and glue sticks, if you forget something. And feel free to bring a snack if that’s how you roll.
If you don’t have a project in progress but want to see what it’s all about, our Bead Bar will be open for business. For $12, it’s an all-you-can-bead situation, with a huge buffet of beads and basic bracelet-making supplies. We'll have some cute fall beads if you'd like to make a seasonal stack.
Joining us with your own project is FREE, but if you think you’re coming, grab a ticket so we know how many people to expect. Can't wait to craft with you!

Duration: 2 hours
Ages: Adults
Led by: Locally Crafted Workshop (@createatlocallycrafted)
We’ve seen the connections that crafters are making spontaneously in our workshops, so we thought, “why not do it on purpose?” Making friends as an adult can be … tricky, but it’s a lot easier when you’re bonding over a fun, creative activity.

We invite you to come alone or bring a friend or two for some low-key crafting and chatting. We’ll provide a simple craft project that you can accomplish while holding a conversation, along with a (non-scary, non-embarrassing) icebreaker so we can all get to know each other.
