What a magical day we had at Saratoga Joinery's Santa's Workshop! Our shop transformed into a winter wonderland of creativity, laughter, and holiday spirit—and we couldn't be happier with how it all came together.
Kiddos ages 3-8 had an absolute blast choosing between age-appropriate woodworking projects, decorating cookies, and diving into festive crafts. There's nothing quite like watching little hands carefully hammer nails, frost cookies with generous amounts of sprinkles, and create their own holiday masterpieces. The concentration faces? Priceless.
Santa's elves were hard at work turning our woodshop into the North Pole, and let's just say they brought some serious holiday magic with them. Kids got to peek behind the curtain at all the festive preparations, and meeting Mrs. Claus was definitely a highlight (she's even cooler in person).
A huge thank you to the Saratoga County Children's Literacy League for setting up a cozy reading corner during the event! It was such a hit watching families snuggle up with holiday stories between activities. Parents and kids alike took advantage of the quiet space to wind down with a good book—proof that the perfect pairing for crafting and creativity is a little story time magic.
It was one of those days that reminded us why we do what we do—bringing our community together, sparking creativity in the next generation, and making memories that'll last way longer than any store-bought gift.
Thank you to the Saratoga Springs Rotary Club and Stewart’s Shops for sponsoring this fun event! And thank you to everyone who came out and made Santa’s Workshop such a special day!
