Hosted a jewelry making event here and OH. MY. GOD. it was so fun. Emily, the owner, was super communicative, accommodating, and then also just FUN to hang with as she taught us the art of resin jewelry. The shop has the cutest assortment for plenty of post-class shopping. I am recommending One Strange Bird to EVERYONE.
