In Anaheim, California, The Makery is becoming a wonderfully uplifting spot on the map. Lisa Cherry has a great shop and is using her resources to pool the best kind of modern crafting people and good times in southern California.
I have never heard of a place like her shop, where one can rent the space for a crafty evening, or meeting place, or simply drop in to make and take a craft from the shop via one of her handmade kits.
Today was not an event in her shop alone, rather, it was a gathering of kindred spirits ready to let go and create anything from modern macrame to cupcake decoration, to using an antique letter press, to learning crochet.
She, the Lisa, seems at home in the details. There were flowers on the tables at lunch and swag bags screen-printed by hand. I cannot get over the number of hours she's dug into, but I know she and her hubby are now celebrating an amazing day filled with lots of fun crafts and plenty of smiling faces.
Congrats, Lisa!
