Come join us in making a variety of small, simple crafts that you can then gift to someone special on your holiday list (or keep for yourself, we won’t tell!). Make lip scrubs, bath soaks and shaving cream made from simple, everyday ingredients. Afterwards, you can make a decorated homemade tag to go along with it.

Adults only, registration is required.
