Website woes

The RCM website is down temporarily. We are working to get it back online shortly.

monday is craft lounge day!

originally posted by Dawn at craftlounge.blogspot.com We have a new home for the craft lounge. Jenny, the lovely owner of Richmond's first sewing lounge Fleur Fabric Boutique, has graciously offered us space for our next monthly get together.

Come join us at 119 N Robinson St (next to Halcyon's) from 7:00 - 9:00 pm this coming Monday September 8th.

The organized craft will be button pendants and badges. We'll supply plastic canvas, wire and pin backs. Please bring buttons, cutters, a folding chair if you have one and your imagination. Fleur Fabrics has a great selection of vintage buttons and some bakelite starting at only .10 cent each!

Let's get crafty people!

***also, even though it is only september, we are already thinking... Christmas/Holiday!...there are great local opps for local artisans, please join us at the craft lounge to hear about these opportunities on Monday!
