Big news: I have been quiet here because I have been busy working on my new shop!!

I am so excited to annouce I signed the lease on my shop space today. #15 Market Square is mine! I am opening a creative reuse/alternative art supply store in September.

Thrift/Craft is going to sell vintage, gently used, and new supplies. Parties, maker space drop-in area, knitting circles, how-to demos, and even classes on circuit bending. Thrift/Craft will have them all and more.

There will be a big bulk/fill a bag area, books, tools, ephemera, haberdashery and most interestingly lots of awesome reusable waste sourced from local industry and makers, creatively reimagined into art supplies.
