Get ready for winter - or any special occasion - with your very own handmade countdown calendar!

In this workshop, we’ll explore a variety of creative techniques, including origami folds and envelope-style designs, to craft unique folders, envelopes, and tiny boxes. Once complete, these pieces will be assembled into a one-of-a-kind countdown calendar, perfect for holding small surprises, notes, or treats.

This program is part of our Clever Crafter series, designed for children and adults to enjoy crafting side by side. Work at your own pace, try out new techniques, and leave with a beautiful project you can continue to customize at home.

Registration is not required.
