HIGH-ZEN, LOW LEARNING CURVE CRAFT PROJECTS FOR MOST AGES
Clay-Kibana Kits
The entirely made-up art of foam clay flower-arranging
Everything you need to make this Clay-Kibana arrangement, from the vase to foam clay to detailed instructions. These are sold individually but are a great deal in groups of three - because after you make one, you are going to want to make another! Great for groups and parties.
Needle Felting Projects
Play with wool as if it’s clay and sculpt yourself an endless array of stuffies without ever learning to sew
A wreath for All Seasons
Fill Your Home With Fresh Spring Flowers - Any Time of Year. Light, colorful foam clay lights up a natural wreath of twigs and sticks. Hook included - because the best project is the one you actually hang.
Paper Marbling
Color, floating on water, rearranging itself with a breath of air, the lightest of touch. Paper marbling is inherently Zen, and the results can be nothing short of mind-blowing with very little practice. Our kit uses natural seaweed chemicals, high-quality paints, and thick cotton paper, and includes everything else you need to try it for yourself
Boudoir Lamps
All the glittery, lacy, romantic, just slightly noir stuff you need to create your own actual reading lamp with glue, smiles, a bucket, some electrical stuff, and a passion for sequins and English gardens. Perfect for parties for all ages
Do Something Fun
Drink wine, eat snacks and make stuff! What more could you want for your bachelorette party, baby shower, corporate bonding event or block party? Tell me about the vibe you are looking to create and how many people are involved and we’ll put together the perfect event for you. Pricing varies by event.
Looking for an at-home or rainy day party activity for that hard-to-please age? Try a craft party. I bring the idea, the materials, the setup and you bring the kids!

About Us - ok, me
Hi. I’m Caren and I’m a very specific kind of crafty. Embroidery, weaving, knitting; these reward patience diligence, perfectionism.
These are not my kind of crafts. I like things that turn out well even if you. make a few mistakes; crafts that reward a sense of humor and remind you of why you used to love arts and crafts in the first place.
My kind of crafts are displayed below. You can buy kits that give you everything from precut string to a hook to hang the finished product on, along with detailed instructions to make what you see, or something entirely your own.
I’ll also bring the kits to you, set up and teach your guests how to do the projects, which work for ages 8-88.
