<p><b>The Craftworkers’ Guild Spring&nbsp;Shop<br>Celebrating 100 Years of&nbsp;Craftsmanship, Community and Creativity</b><b></b></p>
<p>The Craftworkers’ Guild is proud to continue the celebration of our 100th anniversary year with the Spring Shop. <b>The shop will be open 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, Thursdays to Sundays from April 30th through May 24th.</b> Our shop is located at the historic Kendall House, 3A Meetinghouse Road in Bedford, behind the Bedford Library.</p>
<p>Now in our centennial year, the Guild continues to honor a century-long commitment to excellence in fine craftsmanship. This year’s Spring Shop features the work of over 40 local Guild member artisans and craftspeople, showcasing a rich variety of handmade goods — from timeless New England traditions to fresh, modern designs.</p>
<p>“Reaching this 100-year milestone fills us with gratitude for the generations of crafters who shaped our Guild, and it inspires is to share a collection that honors that legacy while embracing new creative directions,” says Carol Davis, President of the Craftworkers’ Guild. “Each shop brings its own burst of imagination, and this year’s shop carries a special weight as we celebrate a century of handcrafted artistry.”</p>
<p>Shoppers will find a curated selection of locally made, juried crafts, with something for everyone — from Mother’s Day gifts to graduation and wedding presents — including seasonal décor, photography, fine art and prints, cards, woodworking, textiles, pottery, fiber arts, sewn and knitted items, soap and body care, gourmet goodies, candles, jewelry, glass, and more. Many items are one-of-a-kind, perfect for gifts or treating yourself.</p>
<p>Proceeds help support the Guild’s ongoing arts education initiatives in the community, continuing our mission to inspire creativity for the next generation of artists and makers.</p>

<p><strong>Thinking about adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or an in-law apartment to your property? </strong></p>
<p>An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) or in-law apartment can mean a lot of things. A place for aging parents to live independently but close by. A landing pad for an adult child. A future rental. A flexible space that adapts as life does. Whatever's drawing you to the idea, the questions tend to be the same: <em>Is it allowed where I live? How much will it cost? Where would it even go? And how do I make sure it actually works?</em></p>
<p>Join us in the showrooms of the <a href="https://www.nashuahomedesigncenter.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Nashua Home Design Center</a> for a relaxed, conversational morning with David Bryan, President &amp; CEO, and Gates Bryan, Design Specialist, of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.blackdogbuilders.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">Blackdog Design/Build/Remodel</a>. Between them, they've helped countless New Hampshire and Massachusetts families think through these exact decisions, and they'll share what works, what doesn't, and what to think about before you start.</p><p><strong>What We’ll Cover:</strong></p>
<ul><li>What an ADU actually is, and what your town will (and won't) allow, between location, access, size, and utilities</li><li>The design constraints worth knowing about early</li><li>How to make an ADU feel like a natural extension of your home, not an addition tacked on</li><li>The family side of the conversation: finances, life changes, and how today's design should anticipate tomorrow's needs</li><li>Permitting in southern New Hampshire, and how the rules vary town to town</li><li>What it really takes to generate rental income from an ADU</li><li>The factors that genuinely move the needle on construction costs</li><li>How to choose the right people to work with</li><li>Smart, practical kitchen and bath design for smaller footprints</li></ul>
<p>Come with questions. Leave with clarity, and a much better sense of what's possible on your own property!</p>
<p><strong>Space is limited to 20 guests, so we keep things small&nbsp;</strong><strong>enough for real conversation.</strong></p>
