You always hoped to be a hot mom, but dripping with sweat in triple-digit temps isn’t exactly what you had in mind.

Skip tee ball and stay cool this summer at Make Shop & Studio.

The funky little Bishop Arts District boutique offers summer camps for future fashionistas ages 5 and up. Budding Betsey Johnsons learn sewing and design basics to create five projects tailored to age and experience level. Activities include handbags, T-shirts, and nontoxic screen printing, to name a few.

Even the youngest couturier will graduate with quite a collection.

Not to mention her own interpretation of haute.
