Love Bugs from Every Day’s a Holiday book by Heidi Kenney

We’re getting so excited for our special Heidi Kenney crafting event on January 30th at 3pm. Her book, Every Day’s a Holiday (Chronicle Books), is chock full of fun crafting ideas. It’s hard to decide what to try first. We gave the love bugs a try this weekend. Aren’t they cute?  Sadie loved making the felt bodies. They’re such a sweet thing to give to your Valentine.

We still have a few spots open for our Afternoon with Heidi Kenney, so we hope you’ll sign up soon. Remember, you’ll get to take home a copy of this awesome book if you attend!

Boo!

Crazy Grace Halloween T’s are in da house…

Good news.  The Crazy Grace Halloween T’s have arrived.  We also received these adorable Fox scarflets.  Remember those creepy fox stoles your grandma used to sport?  Well, Knitberry’s taken all the creepiness out of the equation, and these are just downright cute AND warm.

Create your own spectacular Halloween mask!

Next Friday (10/22, 3-4PM), we’ll gather to make one-of-a-kind Halloween masks.  This is a great family activity, and it will help get you started in fashioning your Halloween costume.  We’ll supply you with everything you’ll need to make silly, scary, or stunning masks.

If you’d like to sign up for the class, please visit our website:http://thecraftlounge.com/, e-mail us: info@thecraftlounge.com, or call: 201/944-3311.

Treasure Boxes!

Paint, glue, pretty papers, ric-rac, markers… we pulled out all the stops when we made these fun treasure boxes at Tuesday’s Craft Club. Some of the kids shared what they’ll be keeping in their boxes, but we’ll never tell!

We have more kitties in the house!

Bashful Kitty

He’s a little bashful, but he’ll surely warm up once he’s in the right home…
