DIY @ MOV 2

Back by popular demand, the Museum of Vancouver is hosting round two of DIY @ MOV, a night of social crafting. Mark your calendars! Here are the details:

date: Friday, April 9th, 2010
time: 7:00pm
where: Museum of Vancouver - 1100 Chestnut Street
cost: $15.00, members free (<- highly suggest being a member, very reasonably priced and well worth it!)

Join us for round two with workshops by Birkeland Bros (spinning, needle felting), Collage Collage (painting), Urban Source (paper collage) and Fibre Manipulator (jewelry making). Once again, the event will feature a mini Got Craft market including Sassy Contessa, Sam Made, Divesin Design and Roxypop.

Swap-O-Rama-Rama!

Swap-O-Rama-Rama took place yesterday and it was so much fun!


Follow the chalk!


QMFM Street Team was broadcasting live at "the" event in town.



Workshops throughout the day!

Still recovering from all of the festivities, so I am keeping this short with lots of images!

... and then it starts ....




DIY sewing stations where experienced sewers can teach and guide you to transform your new finds. Some examples included napkins made out of pants and a pair of jeans were transformed into a skirt!


If sewing wasn't your thing.. then bring your finds to Blim and have them silk screened!


Check out Julie, Lia, Becka and Richard at the front desk! Ready to take your $$, stamp your hand and sort your clothes!


Me with my 'new to me' scarf. SCORE!
