Made Local Marketplace

This week we're introducing Kim Murphey, the Rohnert Park artist behind Mindful Confetti, whose colorful resin creations can be found at both Made Local Marketplace Santa Rosa and Novato.
Kim describes much of what she makes as “functional art”—and we think that's the perfect way to put it.
She brings little pieces of the natural world into her work: dried flowers, seashells, sand, tumbled crystals, pebbles and tiny pieces of driftwood, preserving them in resin to create trays, bowls, boxes, bookends and more. 🌿🐚
Each piece can be put to work around your home or simply displayed and enjoyed as art.
And we especially love Kim's wonderfully simple explanation for why she does it:
“Creating things makes me happy.” ❤️
We think you can see a little of that happiness in every piece.
Look for Mindful Confetti next time you visit us in Santa Rosa or Novato!

Our workshop season is almost over—and if you've been meaning to take a class with us, now's the time!

We've just added the final workshops to our calendar, taking us through the first weekend in November. After that, we'll be taking a break for the winter since our workshop spaces are outdoors, and we'll start up again in the spring.

So we're giving you one more nudge to take a look at the calendar and come make something with us!

A few especially popular workshops even have some unexpected openings:

✨ Mosaic Workshop — This one sold out quickly, but we've had a few cancellations for next week's class, which means a few lucky people can still get in.

🌿 Bundle Dyeing with Slow Digz — Another favorite with just a couple of spaces remaining! Lisa Rogers of Slow Digz was just featured in Sonoma Magazine, so it's a particularly fun time to come learn from her(link to article (https://www.sonomamag.com/slowdigz-founder-creates-eco-fashion-from-her-flourishing-sebastopol-microgarden/) ).

And we've added more classes to round out the season, culminating with our Holiday Herbal Gift-Making Workshop the first weekend in November.

Whether you've been wanting to try something completely new, spend a creative afternoon with a friend, carve out a couple of hours to make something with your own hands, or even get a head start on your holiday list by making a one-of-a-kind gift, we'd love to have you join us.

This is your last call for Made Local workshops until spring—take one more look and grab a spot while you can!

Thank you to everyone who has taken a class, taught a class, brought a friend, tried something new, and helped make this workshop season so much fun. ❤️

We can't wait to squeeze in a few more creative Saturdays with you before we wrap things up for the year!
