Have A Maker Adventure This March
Since 1994 when the Craft and Hobby Association announced that March will be National Craft Month, makers have celebrated and rediscovered the joy of crafting and making something with their own hands. We honor these makers this March by sharing these upcoming DIY classes and workshops hosted by our SF Etsy teammates . We hope that you take this opportunity to get out into your community, learn a new craft, and have a maker adventure ( hopefully with a glue gun! )
