Mini Bookcases: Summer Edition craft workshop in Montgomery County, Md.

Seems like it’s about time for another mini bookcases workshop! Whether you have a whole collection of tiny shelves already, or you’ve been waiting to try this fun project, we’d love to kick off summer with you.

This time, we’ll be offering summer-themed embellishments (plus all your other favorites, don’t worry). Make a gift for a beach lover, a decoration for your beach house or just celebrate al the best things about the season. From crabs to flip-flops to shells and beach glass, we’ll have everything you need to make a tiny summery nook.

We welcome book and miniature lovers of all ages (well, 7 and up), and we love seeing families work on this project together. So bring your favorite crafting buddy, regardless of age!

This workshop includes:

— A 5-by-5-inch bookcase ready for you to customize and embellish.

— Lots of tiny books! We’ll have some mini versions of actual books — contemporary and classic — and some with plain or patterned decorative covers.

— Miniature decorative items like coffee mugs, picture frames, food, toys, holiday decor and more.

— Plenty of summer-themed pieces, including sand, shells, beach glass, sea animals, summery drinks, sunglasses, flip-flops and more.

— A buffet of supplies so you can embellish your shelves; create items like potted plants or flowers in vases; or whatever else you can dream up to make your perfect space.

— Plus, you’re welcome to bring any tiny trinkets or photos to add your own touches.

This is a perfect family activity, and a lovely way to spend a few relaxing hours to kick off summer.

This workshop is open to crafters ages 7 and up, but kids under 11 should be accompanied by an adult.
