Have you spotted these Harry Potter Book Nooks in Central Library's Youth Services area? Book nooks are small dioramas that give the illusion that there is another world hidden behind the shelves. These feature parts 3D printed in The Shop! #MakersGonnaMake #BookNook #HarryPotter

One of our regular Makers created this amazing plant propagation station on the @Glowforge last month! Learn more about The Shop and what you can make at the link in our bio. #MakersGonnaMake

Did you know you can use different materials on the @Glowforge in The Shop? One of our makers recently cut these fox silhouettes out of cardstock, and then used watercolors on paper behind them to create these stunning greeting cards. #MakersGonnaMake https://t.co/TAXQxRVal0
