Upcoming Events
Bigelow Lane Trunk Show in Homespun
February 5-8
Bigelow Lane is a mom-owned, Cambridge-based company dedicated to dressing kids in beautiful, natural, well-made, and clothes crafted with people and the environment in mind. You might have met Alex and Emmanuelle at the Winter Warming in December. Come into Homespun and see them again (or for the first time!) and buy some of their warm and wooly kidswear in person.
Mending Friday
February 9, 8:00-Noon
Emmanuelle from Bigelow Lane will spend an extra day with us working on one of her other passions—mending! Bring along those pesky projects you have been meaning to get to and work on them with friends.
Angel Room Crafting
Friday, February 16, 9:30–noon
Join parents (and grandparents!) for some easy-going morning crafting with simple projects. Please make alternative arrangements for your littles. Babes in arms are welcome, but this is an opportunity for adult socializing and handwork.
Basket Making with William
February 28, 11:00-3:00, Register Here
Did you ever think you could complete a basket in half a day? Fabulous instructor William Krier will provide you with all the materials needed and guide you from start to finish to create an 8" rattan apple basket in just 4 hours. We will keep the class size small so each student will receive the individual attention needed to be successful in this ancient craft. The cost of the workshop is $60, payable at Homespun. Please complete this form to register.
