Dec 15 Crafternoon: Book Page Wreath

Sign-up starts December 1 for the Crafternoon: Book Page Wreath. Crafters will cut, fold, staple and glue pages from discarded books to create a distinctive, lacy literary holiday wreath. All supplies will be provided. 

Crafternoon is a free monthly program for adults and kids in middle school and older every third Saturday from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Library staff and local crafters will host a different make-and-take project each month, with sign-up starting two weeks in advance.

Crafternoons was inspired by a similar program at the New York Public Library that's run by Maura Madden, who wrote, Crafternoon: A Guide to Getting Artsy and Crafty with Your Friends All Year Long.
