IMPORTANT: When ordering any of the tickets please do not add anything extra into your order as the goody bags will be posted closer to the date for the Virtual Attendees or will handed out on the day for those attending in person. Extra products added to the order will therefore not be processed separately.
We are ✨ 10 ✨ years old this year and this is something worth celebrating!
After our Birthday Bash last year we have taken so much wonderful feedback away and are ready to present to you with this year's special event. As last year, there will be again in person tickets as well as virtual tickets. The following will be available for all attendees:
🌺 Lion Brooch Workshop by Steffi (livestream for those who are remote - materials and instructions will be posted out to you with plenty of time prior to the event). The Lion is a symbol of courage and strength which is definitely something that is needed by many of us especially during challenging times. The Lion is also a symbol for summer and the sun which fills us with warmth and light. Let us shine bright and be courageous like a Lion or Lioness!
🛍️ Goody Bags: Filled with special felting treats and other goodies put together in the usual loving and generous Makerss style. The bags will be handed out to people attending in person and posted to those who have bought virtual tickets. This time the bags will also include the materials to make the projects offered during the workshop
