Registration is open for most of our upcoming classes (still have a few more to post!) over on shabbymotley.com - but I wanted to mention this one that I scheduled for next Wednesday when I thought October 28th was still weeks away 😅! You’ll learn how to sew on 6 different styles of buttons, how to hand-sew and cut a button hole onto your take home sewing kit, and you’ll get to learn all about a bunch of different kinds of antique and vintage buttons. You will be able to rummage around some button tins to pick your favourites and you’ll leave with a sewing kit that includes everything you need to start upgrading the buttons on your whole wardrobe! I will add the link in stories!

Remember this chandelier that once hung above the register at Shabby? It’s getting some serious TLC and will soon be available for purchase on the website, rewired and ready to install! No promise on the date yet, but shoot me a message if it strikes your fancy! I’ve fully maxed out where I can fit chandeliers in my home, and we have our big one for when we find our new studio space! I’ll post some specs shortly.

See you tonight at Friday night knitting (all craft) club at Jill and Liam White 356 Queen St. E. 5 to 8 PM!
