About Abloom Earrings:

Abloom is a love letter to the small, magical moments that bring joy to our everyday lives. Founded as a one-woman brand, Abloom was born from the belief that even the tiniest things—like a cheerful accessory—can start a conversation, or make someone smile, or most importantly let your personality bloom. Each high-quality piece is thoughtfully handmade from lightweight polymer clay with care, attention to detail, and the goal to celebrate your individuality..

At the core of Abloom is a deep fondness for nature’s beauty and the changing seasons. Our products are often inspired by wildflowers in bloom, springtime cheer, cozy autumn colors, and the whimsical characters that live in my imagination—from intricately sculpted petals to strawberry stamps to silly goose earrings. You’ll find warm tones, soft pastels, intricate florals, and playful designs across my collections, each one curated to bring a little comfort, cheer, and even a giggle.

About Maker-Led Workshops:

Maker-Led Workshops are a new initiative of the Heurich Urban Manufacturing Incubator. The workshops provide makers with a free in-person platform in the museum’s conservatory to test and develop a new revenue stream to support the growth and stability of their businesses. 

Heurich Urban Manufacturing Incubator: 

The Urban Manufacturing Incubator is rooted in the museum’s belief that house museums should be dynamic and relevant to our modern communities. The mission of the Incubator is to provide economic opportunities to our local small-scale manufacturing communities through: appropriate interventions in business life cycles, collective action, and social enterprises. The local small-scale manufacturing community in DC is composed of two groups: Artisan Makers + Craft Beverage Producers. These groups are directly related to Heurich history - the historic mansion was built and decorated by local craftspeople from 1892-1894 and the Chr. Heurich Brewing Co. (1872-1956) produced DC’s hometown beer brand for over 80 years.
