Some people follow GPS.
Some people follow random sticky notes in parking lots.

Welcome to Handmade Hotspot. ✨

You can only take ONE. 👇

📖 The perfect book stand that holds your place when you need it
OR
🌸 The cutest handmade book sleeve to protect your books on the go

Which are you grabbing first?

(I’m choosing both and nobody can stop me.)

Calling all creative humans! 🎨🧵🕯️🌱📚

Bring something you’ve made (one for each attendee) and leave with a collection of handmade goodies from other local makers! Whether you sew, crochet, bake, paint, make jewelry, grow plants, create art, or just enjoy making things with your hands! We’d love to have you. (You do not need to own a business to join us.)

The first Maker Swap was such a hit that every single person who attended said they had a great time and loved the items they went home with. 💛

Plus, it’s more than just swapping:
✨ Meet other creative people
✨ Make content together
✨ Share business cards (if you have them)
✨ Network and collaborate
✨ Get inspired by what others are creating

No pressure. No selling required. Just a fun afternoon celebrating creativity and community.

Tag a maker friend you’d bring with you! 👇

A sunflower scrunchie, sea creature earrings, collar for your dog, and pottery that belongs in a beach house…

Yep. Summer is sneaking into HH. ☀️

🥟✨ THE GOLDEN DUMPLING HAS ENTERED THE CHAT ✨🥟

The Freshie Dealer may or may not have hidden a few Golden Dumpling Freshies in this freshie drop. 👀

If you happen to snag one, congratulations!! you’ve unlocked a surprise prize! 🎁✨

A few important dumpling rules:
🥟 Find a Golden Dumpling
🎟️ Keep the ticket attached
🎁 Turn it in to claim your mystery gift

That’s it. No riddles. No quests. Just pure dumpling luck.

Now the real question is…

Are you a Golden Dumpling Finder™ or are you about to leave one behind for someone else to discover? 😏

Tiny disclaimer 🤣 apparently my phone and I had some creative differences while filming these 😂 A couple maker videos mysteriously disappeared (and even mine is only me just saying “okay!” 💀) so if you don’t see someone… we love you, technology just wasn’t on our side.

Also… after watching these back I immediately bought a microphone for my phone because WOW the background noise was really trying to be part of the conversation 😂.
