The @rutherfordlibraryfriends hosted their first annual Fall Craft Night this past week and it was an absolute blast. This year’s theme was “Frost Your Way Into Fall” and in collaboration with @sweetschefjen the first craft was cookie decorating!
•
The night was designed to bring folks together in a welcoming environment, much like your favorite cozy fall sweater, with seasonal decorations, hearty snacks, and the option to BYOB.
•
During the 2 hour session, guests were shown a handful of different beginner friendly techniques, in fall’s favorite color scheme, used to decorate 5 cookie shapes 🎃🍁🍂
•
The energy in the room was truly magical; filled with laughter, making new friends and learning a new skill! We hope the folks who joined us had as much fun as we did hosting and look forward to trying something new, next year!

Special thanks to @traderjoes Clifton for donating beverages and a gift basket, @costco for the gift cards used to purchase supplies for the snack cups, and @_iknowjen from @theagencyrutherford for the cash donation that went to baking supplies ie:butter, sugar, flour!
Funds raised go to supporting programs at the @rutherfordlibrary like; the summer reading program, the new mural in the children’s area, movie licenses, and museum passes. taken in Rutherford, New Jersey by @rutherfordlibrary

An evening at one of my favorite places ( 👋🏼 @rutherfordlibrary ) taking a class taught by one of my favorite bakers/artists/humans ( 👋🏼 @sweetschefjen ) alongside one of my favorite women ( 👋🏼 @ginny.perrin ) for one of my absolute favorite causes ( 👋🏼 @rutherfordlibraryfriends ). Oh and there were cookies. It is so easy to support this town and the beautiful people in it. I still need to work a bit on my decorating. 🍪 🍁 📚 taken in Rutherford, New Jersey by @rutherfordlibrary
