This past week my DMs have been filled with friend This past week my DMs have been filled with friends sharing this @wsj article. While it makes for a catchy headline, I don't know that craft retreats are a "cure" – but I do know that there is healing power in community and making. 

Given the state of the world, I’m deeply aware of the privilege of gathering in safety and beauty - and I’m so grateful to be able to curate a space and experience like Well Crafted Sonoma. ❤️

If you’ve been feeling the pull, there is one space left for this October’s creative retreat. I’d love to welcome the final maker to the table. robert-mahar.com/sonoma

We’re nearing the end of mustard season here in So We’re nearing the end of mustard season here in Sonoma — that magical window between the winter rains and the moment the vines begin to leaf out. It’s a fleeting show of color, and one I look forward to every single year. 💛

Take a few seconds to stroll the vineyard’s edge with me — and while we walk consider joining me here in Northern California, October 5–9, for Well Crafted Sonoma. My second annual creative retreat is rooted in handcraft, connection, and the simple joy of making together in a beautiful setting.

🌼There is just one spot remaining.🌼

If it’s been on your mind, I would love to welcome you. Learn more and register at robert-mahar.com/sonoma
Friends, I'm delighted to be back at the beautiful Friends, I'm delighted to be back at the beautiful Appellation Healdsburg hotel this Saturday, February 28 for my Japanese Paper Marbling Workshop. 

Start your weekend swirling color into dreamy, floating patterns and capture them on paper (and cardboard coasters!) These rainbow ribbons and inky blooms create unexpected magic with each print a one-of-a-kind surprise. ✨🌈✨

There will be wine, mimosas, and delicious light bites to keep the creativity flowing. Beginner friendly - absolutely no prior experience needed. 

Follow the link in my bio for all the details, and come start your weekend in the most colorful way.
This autumn, Well Crafted Sonoma welcomes the wond This autumn, Well Crafted Sonoma welcomes the wonderful Mimi Kirchner and her Tiny World Workshop. She's beautifully created a series of samples inspired by the Golden State — but you’re invited to stitch a pincushion panorama all your own: a quiet coastal cottage, a sunny desert adobe, or a memory made tangible in thread. Each teacup holds a story. 🪡❤️

Join us October 5–9 in the heart of California Wine Country for a thoughtfully curated week of hands-on workshops exploring needlework and textile craft, led by Mimi and me. Charming redwood cabins, chef-prepared meals, a poolside classroom, and brilliant new friends from across the country await you.

Registration is nearly full — visit robert-mahar.com/sonoma to learn more and claim one of the final two spots. 🎉
