Sharing the Joy

The Sacramento Craft Mafia is thankful to be a part of such a diverse and supportive community. We've had several shows as a group and the folks around Sactown have come out to see what we're making and to scoop up our goods and for that we thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Part of belonging to an organization is giving back to the community.

As we ring in the new year, the Sacramento Craft Mafia will be looking for new and creative ways to give back to our community, but we wanted to do a little something for 2007, so we threw together a little donation basket for the Children's Receiving Home of Sacramento. The basket (and bags!) included handmade jewelry, accessories, and bead kits, from members of the Sacramento Craft Mafia, as well as others who contributed to the Sugarcube Society. Also in the basket were store-bought goodies for the girls. My younger nieces decorated some of the earring cards and my daughter decorated the outside of the box to give a REAL handmade feel ;) :







Extra thanks to all the SCM contributors plus crafters who forwarded their previous donations from the Sugarcube Society to this cause:
