Heather Donohue is known for her charming, nostalgic take on felt Christmas stockings, tree skirts, ornaments, and other creative commissions. She creates original content and craft projects, and loves leading in-person craft workshops. (They usually include sequins…and treats.)
Her craft lab is in Minneapolis, where she lives with her husband, their twins, and cavalier king charles spaniel.
Upcoming Events: December 1-3, Julmarknad (YOUL-mark-nod) Handcraft Market & Festival at the American Swedish Institute in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Monday, Dec 11 at noon CT: MadeTV live holiday workshop via Zoom. Heather and Ana Bianchi lead a one-hour workshop on Fun Felt Ornaments. (The live is free, no MadeTV network membership is required.)
Fun Facts: I met my husband Nick through mutual friends in New York, yet we were born in the same hospital in St. Paul, Minnesota. I was a staff writer at The Onion in and after college. I was on David Letterman for Audience Show and Tell. (I shared a photo of me with his pal, Martha Stewart. I worked for her from 2000-2002.)
