Love Notes & Little Joys: Valentine Card Workshop 💌✨💖

This February, we’re putting the aww in art workshop. Join us for a creative night dedicated to love in all its forms: romantic, platonic, self-love, body-love, community-love, and that sweet “I’m just glad you exist” energy.

We’ll send you everything you need; each package will be packed with cardstock, stickers, washi tape, prompts, and all the Valentine sparkle your heart can handle! Then we’ll spend the evening making cards you can gift to someone special… or keep for yourself because honestly? You deserve a love letter, too.

Bring your imagination, your softest blanket, and whatever February beverage speaks to your soul. And because we love love…
