Camp Workroom Social 2017
It’s been almost a month since I was at Camp Workroom Social and I try to keep the “camp” feeling alive as long as I can after it ends. What is the “camp” feeling you ask? Or better yet, what is Camp Workroom Social? If you don’t already know, Camp Workroom Social is a 4 day sewing retreat in the Catskill Mountains, organized by Jennifer Wiese of Workroom Social in Brooklyn, NY. If you went to summer camp as a child, you probably already know what the “camp” feeling is. I only went to summer camp as a pre-teen, so only got to go a couple of times before I aged…

Camp Workroom Social Recap
How should I write about my Camp Workroom Social experience? Where do I even begin? What happens at Camp Workroom Social stays at Camp Workroom Social? It was such a great experience that I don’t really know where to start. I don’t use the word magical lightly, but it was so special and magical, that you kind of just had to be there. How about I just start from the beginning? Camp Workroom Social was the brainchild of Jennifer Wiese of the sewing studio Workroom Social in Brooklyn, NY. I found out about it through someone I follow on Instagram who had made a pair of Ginger Jeans. The rabbit hole that followed, led me to a class…

Ukulele Fun!-damentals Recap and Recital Video
So many great experiences start as a gift from my husband; the first one being the sewing machine he got me three years ago, that started my garment sewing obsession. I had off-handedly mentioned to Matt that I was interested in learning how to play the ukulele. One reason was that two of my all time favorite bands have ukulele in them: Man Man and the Magnetic Fields. The other was that I had heard that it’s a good instrument to learn as an adult beginner. Last year for my birthday, he surprised me with a ukulele and a gift certificate towards a class at Dusty Strings. I have always been a huge music lover. Growing…

2014 Year in Review
https://www.tooloudrecords.com/fankaz/ Looking back at 2014 is tricky. It was a year of a lot of change. If you have been reading this blog for awhile, some of you may already know of some of the events of the year. It’s not at all easy to sum up, and that may be why I have found myself compacting it into this sentence- In five months, I lost my mother and two dogs and got married. It seems kind of blunt, but it’s true and a lot can be gathered from it. Of course the year wasn’t all bad. In the midst of all that tragedy, I had one of the best days of my life: my…

Mosaic Flower Stone Workshop Recap
https://ergonoptix.com/loupe-guide/ I don’t know what the word is for me; life-long learner, school-a-holic, knowledge junkie? Yikes. Somehow none of those terms sound good. All I know is, I sure do like to be in school, taking classes and learning stuff. I was in college for 7 years after all. When my blogging bud, Stacy Brewer, of the blog Seattle Seedling announced her plans of starting an “Urban Farm Schoolhouse”, I was totally on board. I was especially happy to see that she was offering a Mosaic Flower Stone Workshop. I had seen some of her mosaics on her blog and was totally jealous of her skills, so I signed up immediately. I’ve been reading Stacy’s…

2013 Year in Review
https://sumanpsychiatryhospital.com/patient-care/ Well, 2013 is over. Following on the heels of a previous rough year, 2013 was a year of serious ups and downs and it started at the very bottom. I began last year, in the ER with my mom, which set in motion a chain of difficult life changing events for our whole family. Still exhausted from 2012, it was challenging to stay positive last year. I could recite a whole litany of clichés here, like “whatever doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger” or “it’s always darkest before the dawn”. Maybe it’s easy to say those things when times are tough, because they make us feel better and it’s hard to…

Schoolhouse Craft Fall Conference 2013 Recap
Order Soma Online After attending Schoolhouse Craft‘s Blogger’s Summer Camp back in June, I immediately signed up for their two-day Fall Conference, before I even knew what classes were going to be offered. The price was right and I figured if it was going to be similar to Blogger’s Summer Camp, but longer and with the same kind of people, it would be yet another opportunity to learn and get to know more like-minded and talented folks (I would say women, but occasionally a guy or two shows up). Billed as a weekend for “Creative Entrepeneurs”, the Schoolhouse Craft Fall Conference offered classes for the absolute beginner and established businesses. I’m kind of in the middle.…

Makers Market Recap
It’s been an exciting time over here at Rake and Make HQ! So exciting that this blog post was scheduled for last week and got missed. Makers Market was such a well put together and fun event, that I have to still blog about it, even it if it is a wee bit late. For those of you that missed my post announcing this event, Makers Market was a neighborhood craft fair of sorts, featuring local artisans, and took place at White Center’s own Center Studio. Flower and I shared a table, thank goodness, because with the birth of my lovely new nephew, I got a little behind on making stuff. My…
