Sit - A - Spell Swap
🍂 SIT-A-SPELL SWAP
For those who practice crafts.
This event has no registration fee!
Come sit a spell with fellow local crafters for a gathering filled with handmade treasures, good food, creativity, and good company.
Whether your craft is sewn, crocheted, baked, painted, poured, preserved, stitched, sculpted, grown, assembled, or something entirely your own, bring a little piece of what you create and share it with the group.
Registration is limited to 20 participants and closes October 16.
By registering for the Sit-a-Spell Swap, you are agreeing to:
🍂 Bring a homemade snack or party food for everyone to enjoy.
🍂 Create 15–20 of the same handmade item to send home with the other guests. The exact number needed will be based on our final head count and announced October 17.
🍂 Come ready to create! We’ll make a craft together during the gathering, with everything you need provided.
When it’s time to swap, grab your basket, tote, or bag and collect one handmade creation from each of the other participants. You’ll arrive carrying pieces of your own craft and leave with a collection created by the people gathered around you.
There’s no selling and no expectation that every item have the same monetary value. The whole idea is to share what we make, enjoy something homemade, create together, visit, laugh, and sit a spell.
Registration Deadline: October 16
Final Swap Quantity Announced: October 17
Maximum: 20 Crafters
