Operation Write Home

Imagine yourself a member of our armed forces, stationed away from your family. Wouldn't you appreciate some handmade cards to send home to them for special occasions or just to say "I'm thinking of you"?

That is what Operation Write Home is all about.

We will be having workshops & demonstrations, but also tools & supplies available for you to join us in making the lives of these men & women easier in one small but important way.
If you are unable to join us at the store, we are a drop-off location so we can send a nice package of handmade cards to the regional shipping location of Operation Write Home. (No loose glitter please, it is dangerous for the troops - it shows up on night vision goggles!)

For more detailed information about OWH, please visit www.OperationWriteHome.org

For more information about our event, please call the store.

Thank you for giving back to the men & women of our armed forces.
