summer 08 :: news
hey, makers!
I have the best news ever: shoemaking is back at MAKE! we'll be offering weekend-intensive workshops starting in september. you'll learn everything you need to know to create a pump or slingback from start to finish, as seen in the pages of ELLE magazine. please note: there's only space for 6 lucky would-be shoe designers in each session. (click here for a link to our shoemaking page and online enrollment.)
