BYO... P?

The shop is back up and running (though we aren't COMPLETELY set up, we are functioning and we love our new home)!

The new space is located at the corner of Norris and Bonnycastle, just blocks from our old location.
The easiest way to get here if you are driving (because Bonnycastle is only One-Way for a couple blocks) is to take Eastern Pkwy and turn onto Norris (opposite the park). We are only two blocks in, at the corner of Bonnycastle (1734 Bonnycastle).

We are so excited to bring you one of the first new perks of our new home... BYOP Night!

Have something you've been working on? Have something you want to start making? Just want to hang out? Come to BYOP (Bring Your Own Project) Night at The Makery!

Join us for our first BYOP Night next Wednesday, July 21st from 5pm-8pm.

All skills and skill levels welcome. Just bring your own supplies and ideas and we'll shoot the breeze while sharing skills and motivation.

We hope to make this a regular event, so if you can't come this round, there's always next time!

what's goin on?!

A lot of changes are coming our way here at The Makery.
So excited to announce that the shop will be moving next week!



The move is a huge step toward making The Makery a more community based space still brining to Louisville some of the best the handmade community has to offer.

Our new spot will be just blocks from our current location, but in a space more conducive to what we have planned for the future of the shop.

The new location will house The Makery and the offices for Kopilot Press. We are super stoked to be sharing a space together.

You can still visit us at our Bardstown Rd. location through Saturday!

New Address:
The Makery
1734 Bonnycastle Avenue (corner of Bonnycastle and Norris)
Louisville, KY 40205

New Hours:
Wednesday-Saturday 12pm - 7pm
Sunday 12pm - 6pm

We will see you at our new spot in July
xoxo

Giant Peach Derby Trunk Show Recap


Giant Peach IS lovely!
Last Friday we showcased works handmade with the Derby spirit in mind by Louisville based artist Tenille Novinger of Giant Peach.
What better way to dress up your Derby and Oaks dresses this year than with fancy hair pieces and other accessories made right here in the Derby City.
We still have a great selection here in the shop, so its not too late to check out the loveliness that is Giant Peach.
