Join us as we explore and learn how to use the database Creativebug. This database is all about crafting. Use it to get ideas, patterns, watch video classes, and be able to save them in one place to get back to when you need it. If you are looking for some make-it-yourself gift ideas, this will help you out! This class will be in the Archer Room.

Crafting and technology collide at the library as we use Cricut craft cutting machines to decorate holiday candles.  All supplies are provided. If you have your own Cricut machine, you are welcome to bring your own, but the library will have a few available to be shared between crafters. It is recommended to attend the “Introduction to Cricut” class first or have some prior knowledge of the Cricut craft cutting machines.
