Stories Event!!! What a party!!!

What a party it was!!! Saturday was our Stories event at the studio and what fun was had!! We want to thank everyone who donated books to our event to benefit the Minnesota Literacy Council...we are still counting (as we are still getting books dropped off!) but we are well past the 350 mark!! Almost double our initial goal!! THANK YOU!!!

We had a great turnout to the event despite the sunny, warm weather outdoors! Kids (and adults!) were fascinated by Colleen from WonderWeavers who entertained the kids with stories and her puppets, a craft, and very detailed balloon figures! And Cindy, the facepainter, was quite the artist! You can see from the images in the video, the facepaint was phenomenal!

Thank you also to Jennifer Pogatchnik from doodleinvite.com who brought her latest stationery designs for people to view and order for Mother's Day and teacher's gifts! Tracy Morrison brought wonderful new designs from Matilda Jane. And everyone enjoyed our rain-themed cookies specially handmade for the event! It was an action packed morning!!

We are hoping to make this an annual event so if you couldn't make it this year, stay tuned next spring for our 2nd Annual Stories Event!!!
