Giving Thanks

This year, we at MyHandworkStudio.com are most thankful. First, we are thrilled with the opportunity to reach so many kids who love to craft. It is with great joy that we see, share and hear the voices of so many talented kids. Also, at our studio in Narberth, PA, we've had the best year working with kids all day long. The photo above is the project Miss Julia, our talented Studio Director, made with the kids during our Thanksgiving Workshop. The look on each child's face as they walked out the door holding their own turkey was priceless!
