From Patches to Personal Creations: HTVRONT Brings Hands-On Crafting t

An evening of creativity, community, and meaningful connections with Forager Crafts in Los Angeles.

A Celebration of Art, Creativity, and Community

On September 19, 2026, Frogtown, Los Angeles, came alive with art, music, and creativity for the 15th Frogtown Artwalk, celebrating the 20th anniversary of Frogtown Arts. The event brought together over 70 artists across approximately 33 venues, transforming neighborhood studios, galleries, and local businesses into a vibrant creative destination.

HTVRONT was excited to join Forager Crafts, a local craft studio and gathering place, which also transformed its parking lot into a lively marketplace featuring artists, independent brands, and hands-on activities.

Pick a Patch, Make It Yours!

At the HTVRONT booth, creativity was in everyone's hands!

Visitors chose from colorful iron-on patches and DTF designs to personalize handkerchiefs, cosmetic pouches, canvas tote bags, and more. With fabric markers available, they could also add their own drawings and personal touches.

Our Auto Heat Press 2 and mini heat presses made the customization process simple and fun, helping visitors turn their ideas into finished creations in minutes. From children enthusiastically drawing their own designs to adults carefully arranging patches, no two creations looked alike. Some made keepsakes for themselves, while others planned thoughtful handmade gifts for friends and loved ones.

Little Creations, Big Connections

One of the best parts of the evening was meeting makers of all ages and backgrounds.

Some visitors already knew HTVRONT and were delighted to see us at a local community event. Others were familiar with heat presses but amazed to discover how effortless an automatic model could be. We loved hearing their questions, seeing their excitement, and even receiving requests for more hands-on workshops! These moments reminded us that crafting is about more than making things. It's about sharing ideas, expressing individuality, and connecting with others.

Creating Together with Forager Crafts

Our wonderful partner, Forager Crafts, believes in bringing people together through hands-on creativity. Their philosophy, “We gather wherever we go,” perfectly captured the spirit of the evening.

Together, we created more than a product demonstration. We offered a welcoming space where visitors could experiment, discover new possibilities, and enjoy making something uniquely theirs.

A huge thank-you to Forager Crafts and everyone who stopped by! We went to Frogtown with heat presses, patches, and crafting supplies. We left with new connections, fresh inspiration, and countless creative memories!
