Wonder Works Owner Christine Osborne Featured in Post and Courier Article

We were so happy to pick up the paper on Friday, not only because we had a great sticky note advertisement on the front of it, but because Christine Osborne was featured in Warren Wise’s column on buying local!!

This is something that Christine is so passionate about, and we are honored that she got to voice that passion in print. We love being a part of this LOCAL-centered community, so we can’t WAIT to see your smiling faces throughout this holiday season!!
