Sweet DIY

The Sweet DIY is a Do-It-Yourself Class where you get to learn something, make a project, and then take it home that same day.  This Thursday evening, we are hosting a class at The Fabulous Fabric Shop in Shasta Center complete with champagne punch and delectable desserts from Sweetspot.

The project will be wine charms and coasters made of chalk cloth.  What is chalk cloth, you ask?  It is a material that made to be written on and then erased over and over like a chalk board.

The project is just in time and perfect for summertime entertaining.  In fact, you could even use your newly made stuff this weekend for that Memorial Day barbecue!

The class goes from 7-8:30pm and costs a total of $15.  The class is $10 and then the supplies are $5.  If you have already purchased your ticket but not your supplies, please bring cash the evening of the event.  There are a few seats still available.  Get yours now!

PS: This is an easy project that would be great for moms and daughters or best friends that just need some quality time together!                                               

Sweet DIY

Our last event for May, the Sweet DIY, is going to be absolutely SMASHING!  Essentially, it is a do-it-yourself class where you'll take home a finished product at the end of the night.  As a perk, there will be champagne and cupcakes from Sweetspot.

During the class, you will learn about a special fabric that is both whimsical and practical.  We will employ said fabric to create a table setting component that is ideal for summertime entertaining.

Tickets to the event are $10 and supplies are $5.  So, for $15 you get an evening of enjoyment, delectable treats, and a finished product.  Event goes from 7pm-8:30pm and will take place at The Fabulous Fabric Shop on Churn Creek.  Oh, I forgot to mention that you also get the know-how for when you're feeling crafty later.

And, for the record, there are no rules when it comes to DIY!

 

What is Oh!Carousel?

Oh!Carousel is a collaboration of some completely creative and fairly crafty business owners here in Redding.  We all have an intense love of engaging events, new ideas, and innovation.

Our mission is simple.  We love to support our local businesses by having as much fun as possible and by using as much spunk as we can muster.  We do that by offering local girls' night out events, small business workshops, DIY classes, and shopping experiences.  It is our way of connecting people, products, and ideas that wouldn't normally have the opportunity to come together. 

The name developed out of our desire to rotate our good ideas and concepts throughout Redding.  To us, a carousel evokes thoughts of joy, excitement, and whimsy.  We took from that idea and we are making it our own.  We are coordinating, and developing concept events that are both fun and creative and we are loving every moment of it!

So, enough about us.  Just make a date with a girlfriend on Thursday nights and see what fun we have in store for you! 

Events kickoff on Thursday, May 6th with Rotations.  ReddingHandmade is cohosting the event at Sweetspot from 7pm to 9pm.  Four local handmade designers will be featuring and selling their work.  Designers include Chrystalyn, Julie Packer Designs, Oh Baby! Redding, and NCharshaf's Handmade Notebooks & Stationery.
