Planning a crafty return..
Wow, where has the time gone?
We had such a wonderful time crafting with the kids of Warrenton and we really cannot wait to do it again!
Over the next few months, we will be relaunching our workshops and will be moving to a better and more fabulous space that better fits the Pop works aesthetic.
Crafting for us, is a creative journey and we cannot to start the trip!
We have so many plans in the works and we wish we could share them all with you right now! You'll just have to stop back now and then for updates!
It has been a busy couple of months for us. Alessandra and I have been traveling across the country learning from some of the best crafters and creatives so that we can share our knowledge with our friends from Warrenton and beyond!
we are giddy with excitement and cannot wait to see you soon
lots of crafty love
Alessandra and Annabel

We're off and running!
Our first workshop went off like fireworks- full on explosion of fun! Our besties girls were so delightful that by the end of the class we all BFFs!
We made puzzle piece necklaces with our bff's initials by learning how to stamp on metal. And we wove a colorful cover with origami paper for our journals.
BFFs forever!
