Crafts, Jewelry And Plants Are Needed For Spring Dinner
Crafts, jewelry and plants are needed. These long winter evenings are a good time to concentrate on a hobby or craft. Crafts are needed for the Craft Boutique at the Spring Dinner and the Fall Festival. Plan to knit a scarf, a hat, or a baby outfit. Aprons are popular again. Christmas ornaments, wood crafts, and unique gift items are desired. Use your imagination and donate a handmade craft item. Let’s fill the room!
Jewelry is needed, too. Are pieces of costume jewelry that you never wear crowding your jewelry chest? Those rings, necklaces, and bracelets you no longer wear may be a treasure to someone else. Also, as spring approaches, we hope you’ll keep the Spring Dinner and Fall Festival in mind as you repot your houseplants and divide your annuals.
Please donate your crafts, jewelry and plants to the Women of St. James’ Parish for sale at the Spring Dinner and Fall Festival. Call Peggy Horn, Wendy Crawford, or Joy Wiley with your donations.
