The Crafty Social Orlando

My recap of the The Crafty Social, social media mixer and DIY workshop in Orlando.

The Crafty Social Orlando

This past weekend was The Crafty Social at Credo in Orlando. It was a fabulous social media mixer and DIY workshop organized by the lovely Sara and Amy. Sara reached out to me a couple months ago and asked if I would help lead one of the DIYs and I’m so glad she did! When I met Sarah, Amy, and Jelly from Peplum Events & Design (who was also recited to add her creative touch) we instantly clicked and they felt like old friends. Don’t you just love when that happens?

Below are a few snapshots of the event. A big thanks to everyone that came to the event! It was so great chatting and crafting with you.

Jelly created gorgeous floral arrangements, including this one with purple cabbage. Yes, cabbage! How lovely does it look? I now want to try using it in my next diy arrangements.

Indie Booth set up their photo booth and totally killed it with their collection of amazing vintage props. Carmen, from The Flair Exchange, made these stunning paper tassel garlands for the backdrop.

Sara taught us how to make macrame hanging planters using the heritage blue mason jars. And I shared how to make painted wood bauble necklaces.
