Etsy Craft Party 2011 by Austin Craft Riot

Do you like the feeling of hot glue on your fingertips? Are you an old pro at wielding a pair of fancy edge scissors? Wanna make a grocery bag out of a tshirt, or screenprint a rad design on an old tote bag? If you answered yes (or even if you answered no... we're equal opportunity) please join your local Austin Craft Riot (formerly known as Team Etsy Austin) at a craft-tacular Etsy Craft Party 2011 at Starving Art Studios on Friday June 10th!


Last year was a smashing success, and we're planning an even better, BIGGER party this year. We'll have screen printing (bring your totes, shirts, boxers etc. to decorate!), button making, produce bag makin', duct tape jewelry creatin', super tasty snacks and more. The best part is... wait for it.. it's FREE! And you get to hobnob and learn from the brightest (and nicest!) crafters and makers in the greater central Texas area.

The WonderCraft is getting crafty with us, too! Bring something you'd like to jazz up with a screen printed design or two. They'll be doing their crafty thing in their beautiful Airstream trailer, Stella.

So don't dally! Check our Facebook event page for updates, and RSVP via the Meetup.com page for the event (we gotta know if you'll be there so we can bring enough food for you to eat and supplies for you to craft). You don't need to bring anything but yourself (your item to screenprint on too), your friends and an insatiable need to CREATE.

Pass this on! We want to see oodles and scads of Austinites there, just waiting to make!
