The Fig Tree is so excited to announce our first official event this year...

Modge Podge Pumpkins

It is interesting to think about the evolution of decorating pumpkins.

When I was growing up, it was all about carving pumpkins as creatively as you could.
Taking a lot of time and detail to get the "teeth" of your jack-o-lantern just right.

Fast forward to 2012... the new goal is to make the cutest little pumpkin  in a fairly quick amount of time! What better way to achieve this goal than by covering your pumpkin in modge podge and choosing the perfect topping for it. We will have everything waiting for you..... pumpkins, paper, music, snacks and fun! All you have to do is show up and be ready to get a little messy.

This event will be held at (art space) in dowtown Mount Holly. We are located in the top of the Summey building at 127 South Main Street Suite F. Please RSVP on our facebook page (fig tree mount holly)  or email us at figtreemountholly.gmail.com. The cost is $15.00

We are so excited to begin our new adventure in a creatively beautiful space. 

We can promise your will walk away with a cute pumpkin and a smile on your face! 

Fig Tree Happenings.....

A change will do you good! This statement itself can be settling to the soul, yet instill fear in your bones. Think about this statement in regards to your creative self. Does it inspire you?

We at the Fig Tree hope to inspire positive creative change thorough our parties. Our parties are for kids and adults of all ages who are looking to have fun dabbling with a variety of arts and crafts. Some of our party options include, but are not limited to....

~ painting on canvas ~ paper beading

~ modge podge art ~ tumblers

~ jewelry makin ~ name art

~ tote bag ~ rock art

~ clay sculpting ~ upcycling

~ bird nest necklaces ~ (whatever may be inspiring you, we can try to do)

Currently we are looking for a local "art-space" where we can host parties. In the meantime, we will be hosting on the go! We will bring the party to you. Just tell us when and where and we will be there with our supplies! The Fig Tree Girls are so excited about this new venture and can't wait to see where the inspiration will take us!

A Party For Three!

Yesterday, we celebrated the birthdays of three fabulous children at the Fig Tree. Carter, Davis, and Caroline Jessen spent their birthday creating and using their imaginations with their friends. Caroline and her friends painted on plastic tumblers and canvas totebags. Carter, Davis, and their friends sculpted lizards and snakes with clay and painted on rocks. We had so much fun with our "18" little guests and hope they had a memorable birthday! Their mom said...

"Caroline, Davis and Carter-Stowe, along with all their friends had an amazing time! We will be singing your praises to everyone we know!! We couldn't have asked for a better time!! You ladies ROCK!!"
