This weekend, our Drop-in Saturday craft is one that’s fun for kids and grown-ups alike. That’s right, we’re making hula hoops — great outdoor plaything for kids and the hottest new fitness craze for adults! Drop in on Saturday, September 24th between 12:00pm – 5:00pm, and we’ll show you how to make one for yourself. $20

We hope you’re enjoying these last days of summer. We certainly are, but we’re also looking forward to all the great classes we’ve got lined up for the fall.
Our new schedule includes two 4-week sessions of TCL Craft Club, Drop-in Saturdays (including hula hoops!), and Shaina’s Mixed Bag Knit & Crochet, which is now being offered on Monday evenings, in addition to our regular Wednesday mornings. Marilyn Fernandez is also back with scrapbooking and other paper crafts for both adults and kids.

Beading is one of our most popular crafts. Drop in anytime between 12:00pm – 5:00pm on Saturday, July 16, and we’ll have all our best beads and findings on hand for you to turn into trendy jewelry. Make a necklace, bracelet & earrings, cell phone charms, a set of memory wire rings, or 2 pairs of earrings. Oh, and did we mention we’ve got the air conditioning on? ($20)
Summer is in full swing! Bring in a pair of plain rubber flip-flops anytime between 12:00 – 5:00 on Saturday, July 2nd, and let us help you make them fancy. When you’re finished, you’ll walk out looking like a star in your new shoes. ($20 per pair)
Don’t have a pair of flip-flops to decorate? No worries, we have a limited selection available for purchase. ($5 per pair)
Everyone loves Shrinky Dinks®! Drop in anytime today (6/25) between 12:00pm – 5:00pm to use this awesome material to make charms you can turn into jewelry, (like Judy’s earrings pictured above), magnets, ID tags, and more. ($20 for 6 charms)
Needles and thread aren’t just for fabric! Drop in anytime between 12:00am – 5:00pm on Saturday, June 18, and we’ll show you how to make one-of-a-kind embroidered greeting cards worthy of framing. Use the patterns we provide (including some for graduation and Father’s Day!) or design your own. No sewing experience necessary. ($20 for 3 cards)
It’s time to drop in and make something new at The Craft Lounge again! Join us anytime between 12:00pm – 5:00pm on Saturday, June 11, to make one of our favorites, glass marble magnets. We’ll have everything you need on hand, including different sized glass, decorative papers, and magazines & catalogs ready for repurposing. Magnets are great for Father’s Day, graduation, and teacher gifts, but they’re so cute you’ll want to keep some for yourself! ($20 for 10 magnets)
