Crafted Spaces Sewing & Craft Studio Destroyed by Fire

Donation protected
My wife has been a sewing teacher, crafter, and artisan for most of her life. She was renting a commercial space for her business, Crafted Spaces, in Orillia, Ontario, where we were building a creative space to teach sewing and crafts. It has been a slow process equipping the space and curating a collection of craft and sewing supplies, including a lifetime of purchased and thrifted fabric. She lost everything from vintage lace to an industrial sewing machine. We even customized furniture to make the space ergonomic and unique. The plan was to roll out the last steps and launch a teaching studio for in-person classes and a craft incubator, and at that time, she would take out a commercial insurance policy. We were not expecting the building to burn to the ground. I am starting this campaign to help her rebuild her sewing and craft education business.
