treehouse kid and craft

So I have been wanting to tell you about my favorite kid's shop in town... and really, I love it. It's called Treehouse Kid and Craft, and it's located on Broad right across from Peaches Fine Foods and Ohhhh, Boy Vintage. Owner Kristin Bach has curated a lovely collection of wares, and it is well worth the visit. 

The shop is filled with bright, colorful, thoughtfully made and carefully selected things for little ones. They carry books, toys, games, clothing, art supplies, and accessories for moms as well. It is more than just a shop, though-- it is a DIY center, complete with a library of books and resources for parents and kids. They host group crafts for kids and parents, trunk shows, and artist's markets. They carry handmade goods from local artists and are super supportive of the creative community here in Athens. They also have a section of cute, gently used clothing. They really do welcome children... the shop is set up with a coloring table, crafting area, and friendly attention from the staff. Piper LOVED being in there. They sent her home wearing a little hat made out of craft paper with a pink pom pom on top :)

I am so thrilled that they are here in town!! This is just one more reason why I love living in Athens. I really recommend that you stop by if you live in the area. Be sure to visit their website to see their schedule for upcoming events and learn more about them. You can see the rest of the photos I took here. I want to write more in the coming weeks about some of my other favorite spots in town, just to give a better picture of the place we call home. It really is a rad place to live.

We have some exciting things coming up... lots of work to do, but work is a good thing. I have some really sweet photography gigs in the coming weeks, and I am planning to do lots of sewing... possibly some diaper bags and changing pads for Treehouse. The beginner's sewing class that I am teaching begins on February 8th at Community in downtown Athens. Please email me if you are interested, or just go by the shop for more information.

much love--
