Vendor Spotlight: The Cupcakery

 
Look at this adorable plush fleece Easter bunny! The bright colors and super fun work from the Cupcakery will definitely get you in the mood for spring.

Cindy is constantly inspired to create products for children that are practical, tiny works of art. Every show her products change and evolve as her daughters grow older. She strives to sew things that would be the hit present at a baby shower. The combinations of bright colors, bold patterns, vintage fabrics and felt make the ideas in her head come to life.

Meet the Spring Bada-Bing Charity Partner


The Richmond Craft Mafia loves bringing fabulous to the forefront. Usually, we stick to the crafty; It is important to us that we share all of our favorite designers and artists, and we love the support you show them as they pursue their artistic passions.

This year we would like direct your attention to yet another group that could use your support. A group that is just as passionate, and very focused on finding creative ways to provide positive change in an area that really could use it:


The Neighborhood Resource Center is a non profit located in the Greater Fulton area of Richmond. The NRC provides incredible programs for local youth – including a creative arts after school program, writing workshops, drama and dance classes, and even a recording studio. Everything the center does is designed to help local youth find creative outlets to express themselves and to develop self confidence, as well as academic success, all in an environment that promotes cooperation, tolerance and non violence.

When you visit the SBB this year, please stop by the NRC table. You can make a donation of new or gently used craft or school supplies, learn about volunteer opportunities and show your support for a truly great neighborhood resource.
