New Craft + DIY Studio in Parkdale!

The cool chick behind the super successful blog, Eat.Live.Shop has done it again, this time with a craft & DIY studio. Renee's new venture Re:Creative, not only entails event and store window styling, it also includes furniture makeovers as well as a freshly renovated studio for crafts and DIY workshops!

The studio is located behind Shop Girls in Parkdale, Toronto, at 1342 Queen St West. On your way to one of Renee's fabulous classes, make sure to pop by Shop Girls, you will not be disappointed, talk about killing 2 birds with one stone! Now the studio would not be complete without Renee's creative design sense and handmade touches everywhere, I promise you, there's nothing like this in Toronto. So whether you're a craft and DIY fanatic or craft challenged, like me, make sure to sign up for a class or two or three, you will not regret it. I've tried a few classes and although I thought there's no way I could do this and make something look pretty, I was surprisingly wrong. Not only did I create beautiful projects, but I did not want the fun to end, Renee had to pry me away, otherwise I would have kept going all night! By the way, did I mention, there's kids classes too? Amazing, perfect after school activity for the young one(s)!

I know you're dying to see the studio, as who doesn't like a good before and after project, so here it is:
