If you’re the type of mom who likes making stuff with her hands, then you will feel right at home in Craft MNL, the neighborhood craft workspace at the Collective in Makati City. A community of crafters, designers, and creative entrepreneurs, Craft MNL provides a venue for artisans and hobbyists to share skills, tips, and techniques. By working together, they get to learn and discover from each other, resulting in a deeper awareness and appreciation of Philippine traditional crafts.

You’ll be blown away at the range of workshops at Craft MNL from sewing, felting, and embroidery to printmaking and woodcraft. This March, they have a tie-dye and stamped scarf making session with Yellowbuglove, jewelry resin casting with Junk Studio, and screen printing with Hocus.

For a minimal fee, you will not only get to spend a few hours doing something you love, you will also get to meet like-minded individuals who love doing stuff with their hands. Indeed, workshop participants usually end up being friends, meeting up regularly long after their workshops had ended.

Craft MNL also offers kiddie arts and crafts sessions with Teachers Isa and Cath of Artesanias Divertidas. You can set a playdate with your child and four of his friends or have a full-blown kiddie craft party to celebrate milestone occasions.

At Craft MNL, you and your child can find joy in producing beautiful things while making friends and sharing ideas.

Craft MNL is located at Unit Y, The Collective, 7274 Malugay St., Barangay San Antonio, Makati City. For more information, visit http://www.facebook.com/CraftMNL
