Makerspace Programs

We’re putting out a call for holiday print flannelette donations for our Crafting for a Cause program. Donated fabric will be used to make NICU mattress covers for wee babes needing extra love and care over the holiday season. Fabric must be flannelette. Pre-washed and dried is appreciated, but not required. Mattress covers are 20”x30”

Example fabric print: Santa, snowmen, reindeer, stars, holly berry, solid red, solid green, plaid, snowflakes, trees, etc.

Please drop-off fabric directly to the SPL Makerspace located at 1 Bridge Street in Lakefield during open hours.

Design your own custom cheese board made of beautiful slate and measuring 8.5”x5.75”. During our 1.5-hour class, you will learn how to create a design for your cheese board. Basic computer skills are required. Depending on time, some cheese boards can be engraved at the end of class. Others will be engraved later in the week and be available for pick up the week of December 15 during Makerspace open hours.

Date: Tuesday, December 9
Time: 6:00 p.m.
Location: Makerspace
Cost: $25 collected at the end of class

This program is full. Please phone the Makerspace at 705-651-8601 if you would like to book a one-on-one appointment.

Add something special to your tree, or use as a gift tag, or gift to someone. Each mitten will be made out of birch and measures 3.5”x2.5” with an engraved name piece. Note: this is not an in-person program, but an order for pickup.

The Makerspace will engrave and cut your personalized ornament. You will paint, stain, glue and assemble at home. Pickup will be available the weeks of December 8 and 15 during Makerspace open hours. The cost is $8 per ornament and will be paid at time of pick-up.
