Felted Soap Workshop - with "Creative Hands" founder Brandii O'Reagan

Thursday, March 27th
7 pm - 9 pm
@ the Art Loft

Looking for a fun, hands-on way to unwind in the evening?  A beginner-friendly crafting class, you will be guided through the simple and satisfying process of "felting soap" ... a natural, long lasting exfoliating bar wrapped in soft wool.


Not only a beautiful and practical craft, but the workshop is a great way to connect with fellow "creatives" in a relaxed, welcoming space. 


Bring a friend, bring your own beverage, and enjoy an evening of crafting and conversation.  Light snacks provided.


Class fee is $25.  All supplies included.
