FALL IS FABULOUS!! AND CRAFTY CLASSES AND PROSE IN OUR BRANCHES...

hey crafty cats and knitty kittens!
* CRAFT CLASSES ARE BACK!
* POETRY READING THURS
* NEW & NEW-TO-YOU FALL CLOTHING

*CRAFT CLASSES....you've asked, and we've brought them back! They start next week! And we FINALLY are offering a sewing class! Jump on it! ;)


(Fri Oct 8th 6:30-8:30p will be rescheduled soon!
LEARN TO SEW
with Cal Patch, author of "Design-It-Yourself Clothes"

Do you have a sewing machine in your closet, but have never used it? Or you want to sew, but the last time you stitched anything up was in Home Ec class in 8th grade? If you are looking for a low-commitment class to get acquainted with your machine (or reacquainted with the art of sewing), this is the one for you! In this 3-hour session, you will learn how to thread a machine and wind a bobbin, sew a simple seam, and hem edges. You will make either a pillowcase, tote bag, or drawstring pouch. From this start you'll have a foundation for moving on to all kinds of sewing projects, and your machine may just become your very BEST friend! Note: You can bring your own machine or use one of ours; please let us know when you register. $70)

Sun Oct 10th 6:30-8:30p
INTRO TO KNITTING with Lydia Austin
Knitting isn't just for squares! Learn to caste on cast off with fiber savant Lydia Austin as you knit your own beer coozie! In this beginner knitting class, Lydia Austin will teach everyone how to knit using chunky knitting needles. We will be making beer coozies that kind of look like beer can sweaters (but not with sleeves or anything too cheesy like that). They are the perfect thing for autumn barbecues and chilly bonfire parties to keep your beers cold and hands toasty. Totally great for the fall season and also perfect for gifts! Yarn, beers, and treats will all be provided. Makes a great holiday gift! Did we mention beers included ;). $40

Sun Oct 17th 6:30-8:30p

JUNK TO JEWELS with Treehouse owner and designer of Sirius Lux Siri Wilson
Ever wonder what to do with all those beads and baubles from Grandma's closet? Or do you need yet another reason to keep hoarding broken necklaces and single earrings? Well here's your answer! In just one two hour session you'll learn the basics of jump ring usage, as well as chain layering and clasping. All this will be done with cut apart treasures and loose bead findings. We'll provide the know how and lotsa junk, feel free to bring your own baubles as well. Treehouse's own Siri will show you how it's done! tasty treats and refreshing beverages provided too! $40


*POETRY READING...tomorrow Sept 30th 7pm....this lovely lass Monica strolled into treehouse and asked if she could throw a poetry reading in our branches. We said sure why not? cuz that's how we role. that's really all we know about it. oh, she's gonna bring a box of wine. and there's a facebook invite. swing by! live a little!

hana hattori and her partner whitney and the beautiful dresses they brought to our branches. Hana's beautifully made and lined dresses are created from mainly vintage fabrics, and as avid animal lovers, they donate 5% of all profits to animal rescue organizations. So sweet.... and so are the dresses! perfect for a little holidaze festivities, and also great for layering with tights and sweaters now that the chill has begun.....Come in and check them out! kiss, siri tree

kelly lane back in the trees*


kelly lane is once again featured on the racks of treehouse*, and this time she's stepped it up a notch with a collection made from all organic and sustainable materials. we just love the shape of the sea strings dress..easy to wear on a springy saturday in the park, or a summer night out. here's how kelly describes her collection:
"Inspired by the delightful discoveries on the shores of Hawaii, what a perfect time to offer dresses made from bamboo, soy, hemp, and organic cotton. Precious pools of water collecting at the shoreline and large piles of pitch black lava dusted with stark white sand, gave way to lovely little creations like the
Tidal Pool Dress and Lava Dress. From the versatility of the Canopy dress to the breezy flow of the Sea Strings dress, there's something in this collection for each of your spring-time occasions."
