We got off to a great start on the parade puppet builds this weekend! 🍓

Thanks to everyone who came out to help — and a big thanks to artist, Matt Paul for helping us hit the ground running with templates ready to go. We started to make paper maché strawberries, a giant strawberry carton for Matt's creative "strawberry carton parade costume", and .. we learned how to shape insulation foam for the hands and heads of our four square dancing puppets! 🍓

Haven't signed up yet? Build sessions are free and there's plenty of fun left to be had. Join us! 🔗 mainstreetcharlton.com/parade

ugh.. this crazy winter... we all need felted slippers! 🐑❄️ Everyone you know needs felted slippers! Even the sheep need felted slippers! 🐑❄️

Tuesday evenings Feb 24 – March 10 with fiber artist Mallory Zondag at Main Street Studio in Charlton (just west of Ballston Spa!)

Don't worry if you haven't felted before, Mallory is a great teacher! As an extra bonus, your hands will get a nice spa treatment from the warm olive oil soap you'll soak the wool with... and you'll get a little upper body workout! 💪🏼

Small class size, register soon or DM if you have any questions!
