## About

A weekly after-school craft series for teens at the Escondido Public Library, running on select dates through November and early December. Each session has a different do-it-yourself gift project that teens make, personalize and take home to give for the holidays: rollerball perfume (Nov 3), bag charms and keychains (Nov 12), jewelry (Nov 17), a deco tin wallet (Dec 3) and a decoupage trinket tray (Dec 9). Sessions meet in the Activities Space on the library's first floor for an hour and a half. The series is sponsored by the Friends of the Escondido Public Library. Teens can come to one session or all of them. Check the library calendar for any registration requirement before going.
