am unravelling like a ball of acrylic from the spotlight bargin bin....I've lost my mobile phone, its as dead as a dodo on the battery front and floating around somewhere at my parents place....
And all within the 24 hours when The Craft Dept has gone viral in its own little way and mid -holiday's when the schedule is chocka and carefully balanced alongside my beloved little people and my special family time.
If you've called or texted at any stage since Saturday....please leave me a message at the bottom of this website post or via The Craft Dept facebook page.
Apologies for this most unprofessional of efforts - feel like a right dork.
grrrr

APRIL 2013 SPECIAL HOLIDAY CLASSES
"UP UP UPCYCLED ROCKETS & ROBOTS"
- unleash the inventor within, dig through the treasure chest of computer parts and other weird and wonderful junk and create your very own Robot or Rocket ship. This class will include the use of basic tools such as hammers, a variety of adhesives and some spray painting - all very closely supervised. It is my hope that this class will provide plenty of noisey creative action, with an outcome being that of a unique one-off intergalactic creation that your budding inventor will treasure forever.
"TREASURES & TRINKETS & SPARKLY BITS"
The ultimate girlie session - spend an hour and a half making the most glorious original jewellery, and hair accessories you can imagine. By the end of the session you will have a whole new wardrobe worth of fabulous sparkly treats and a generous helping of trinkets to continue making your new accessory range as and when new outfits come onto the scene. This session is all about good fun girlie pretty stuff and the kick you get from experimenting and creating beautiful wearable pieces of prettiness. There will be some basic sewing (buttons etc), needle felting and hot gun gluing all fully supervised at all times.
"UGLY SNUGLIES"
Onehunga has been overtaken by fuzzy alien lifeforms who all need homes and hugs and a bit of tweaking for life in our neighbourhood. Choose your cuddly woollie companion, stuff with tons of squidgy stuff and then accessorise to your hearts content, googlie eyes, crazy hair, snazzed up shiny buttons galore. Then build them a home they'll feel proud of and take them home to meet your oldies! There will be some basic sewing (buttons etc), needle felting and hot gun gluing all fully supervised at all times.
"TOTES AMAZEBALLS'
A session of fabric painting, stencilling, applique and pompoms - embellish and beautify a super useful sized heavy cotton tote bag - the perfect size for carting future craft experiments and all your crafting gear about in or a great gift for mum on upcoming mothers day...pompoms on the other hand are completely unnesscessary, frivolous pure fluffy fun, imagine stringing your own pompom bunting in colours of your choice around your bedroom - it'll be like you're living in a jar of 100s&1000s - brilliant!

To Infinity.....and Beyond !
Such a good weekend - busy with the school fair on Saturday and great 'summer send off' BBQ catch up with neighbourhood friends in the evening - Sunday was a bit of a housework day but inbetween the chores I managed to whip up this infinity scarf for my lovely girl. Blown away that I have been able to go from crochet ignorant to crochet midly competent so quickly - its that kind of craft - you can achieve something cool even as a beginner. Awesome.
