St. Patrick's Day Volunteer Work Party Recap!

Posted by Crystal Pepperdine, Founder and Executive Director of Flint Handmade

Thank you so much to the Flint Handmade volunteers who attended our work party at The Lunch Studio on Saturday, March 17, 2012! 

The weather was beautiful and we got to see a lot of colorful St. Patrick's Day revelry on Saginaw Street.  :)

Maureen arrived first, so she got to choose her task...stamping the Knuckles logo on to our new small merchandise bags!

Sarah pitched in to work on birthday cards for our members.

Juanita (l) and Jodi took hundreds of our Knuckles tape measures out of their individual plastic bags.  The tape measures are on sale for only $2 in our Flint Handmade Shop inside The Lunch Studio!

Amber drove over an hour just to help us out!  She cut cards for our vendor table signs.

We wrapped up the day with Maureen and Sarah tying bows on the birthday cards.

Special thanks to Amy and Danielle who also volunteered but managed to escape getting their pictures taken! ;)

Everyone had a great time chatting with fellow crafters while helping out Flint Handmade with some fun projects.

We will host another Flint Handmade Volunteer Work Party at The Lunch Studio in Downtown Flint in couple months, so keep an eye on the blog for the announcement!
