As we step into a fresh new year, we’ve created a project that feels beautifully grounding—something warm, tactile, and inspired by the place we all return to for comfort. Think charming silhouettes, layered shapes, and the quiet character of a street you might wander down on a crisp winter morning. This month’s make is all about celebrating the feeling of home in a way that’s both creative and wonderfully practical.
You’ll be working with bold layers, crisp outlines, and textures that build gently on one another—inviting you to slow down, enjoy the process, and watch a familiar little scene take shape beneath your fingertips. And while we’re keeping the final make under wraps for now, let’s just say it’s something you’ll be proud to hang up and put to good use each day…
