Christmastown Crafting

Mom and Dad are right. The best gifts are the ones you make. But it’s good to have a little help. At the 2019 Christmastown event there were some amazing gifts to make and take home. We’re not exaggerating. It goes back to the amazing volunteers. Like Lisa who creates the FunStuff Crafts blog; or Kristen and Mason, a mother/son team, who designed the snowy scene ornament. The glitter was a-flying! Another favorite was Rene and his family who helped build fragrant swags and centerpieces.

Last year's event hosted drop-in activities, live music and Santa Claus. Those were the days.

In 2020 volunteers are creating craft workshops with virtual crafting sessions including: Oyster Shell Ring Dish, Forest Snow Globe, 2020 Christmastown Ornament ('Christmas Isn't Canceled'), Rustic String Ornament, Gnomes, Tag Ornament, Painted Lines Canvas, Wooden Block Ornament, Light Parade Wooden Boat, Wooden Shepard Hook Book Marks, and Felt Christmas Trees!

Dubbed the "12 Days of Crafts," the craft kits will be available to take home. Register online and pick up the kits at the Shelton Mason County Chamber of Commerce office on Railroad Ave the week of the scheduled craft or at the Christmastown Christmas tree maze (1st Street) on the weekend before.

Visit www.christmastownwa.org to join in on the live live workshop or watch the recordings. Space is limited.

Thank you to the Shelton Rotary and Martha Reed Foundation and the City of Shelton for sponsoring the craft kits and online workshops!
