Winter Break Fun!!

Looking for some crafty fun this winter break?  Come to Mozy Rue Eco Craft Collective and sew yourself a little felt pouch to hold all your holiday goodies.  Make a cozy for your mp3 player or a little purse to hold your lip smackers. 

This is a kid friendly craft and would be a great parent/child activity.

This 90 minute class will be offered on Thursday, December 30^th at 1:30 pm at 531 Osborne St.  The $10 fee includes all the supplies needed.  All you need to bring is a pair of scissors that will cut felt and (if you have it) a needle with an eye big enough for embroidery thread.

For more information or to register, please email Susan at kiddlebug@shaw.ca or call the shop at 477-1900.

WEST at the Creative Collection Craft Show

The Creative Collection Craft Show was on at the Crescentwood Community Centre this past Sunday. A pile of WEST'ers were there!

I was able to sneak away from my table for a short while to take a few photos. I know I've missed some people (Sorry Becca!) but I here are the ones I managed to snap:

The Creative Collection Organizer (Manic Mittens booth)

Elliven

Jake and Cleo

Kiddlebug

Mrs. Glockenheimen

Just the Goods

Tawny Bee

I know I missed photo ops with:

JLP Designs
Zenbecca
Mozy Rue

I'm sure I missed a bunch of others. I'm sorry! If you have photos you would like to share and have write access to this blog, feel free to edit. Or email me (tawnykw (at) gmail (dot) com) with all the info and I'll add it.

If you were unable to attend the show on Sunday and want to check out the West participants - please visit the links to their Etsy shops that I've pasted in with their names.
