TESTIMONIALS FROM DIYMAKERSCON 2018

"I just wanted to congratulate you again for your 1st Annual DIY MakersCon. I was really impressed with all of the details(!!), the workshops, and the panels. Everything was fun, engaging, and informative." Beth, Irvington, NJ

"I must say I go into situations with an open mind and this event exceeded my expectations. From registration to wrap up, it was a pleasure to engage with such unique, creative, individuals. Not only were my takeaways authentic items I created myself such as an end table, soy candle, and change purse! + giveaways (I never win anything lol). I left with a sense of community, connection & creativity." Naadia, Camden, NJ

"DIYMakersCon is BEST conference ever! It was a fun filled DIY day of making some really cool projects, shopping handmade goods in the market place and mingling and kiki-ing with other like-minded makers. I was in heaven. I connected with other badass women, got inspired from entrepreneurs, and gained invaluable skills. The DIY MakersCon was so dope..." Rajeeyah, Brooklyn, NY
