Renovation time! We moved EVERYTHING and construction has started! We are temporarily closed (beginning August 3) to complete construction for our exciting new workshop and events space!

We will be unable to ship any online orders or coordinate any pick-up orders until we re-open.

Thank you so much for your patience and we look forward to seeing you in our new space!
