This Wednesday, August 28th, 2013 from 9pm – midnight or later, at Akbar, it’s CRAFTNIGHT!
Project: Light Switch Plates! 
$2 Processing fee
$4 Cosmopolitans! The Akbar Cosmo: The most glamorous 5-letter word in a glass!
Also: THIS FRIDAY! Summertime Extracurricular CraftNight @The Skirball August 31st!

The moon is in its last quarter waning away to make room for some serious star gazing, and also it seems, August finally delivered the smackdown heat it’s famous for this week, LA’s set to be nice and toasty through Friday. Make your summer feel just that much more summer-like by cooling off with a $4 cosmo and some $2 crafts whydontcha!

It’s amazing that the insanely awesome and powerful force of electricity is controlled by a seamless organization of wires, all bundled together in a tiny little flip switch for you to add ambience to your kitchen, or wherever else you happen to need light. It deserves a little appreciation, a little glory for all its hard work, wouldn’t you reckon?

We’re going to say farewell to August by customizing light switch plates, one of my favorite crafts, one that never gets old. You can cover one of these things with googly eyes, or gems, or letter beads, and whether you keep it for yourself or give it to someone else, it never ceases to delight whoever gets to keep it. Magazines for collage will also be provided, lots of opportunities to theme your plate in a myriad of styles.

I’m never exactly sure how we arrive at the end of the month so quickly, but this week is your last chance to get your very own complimentary Mama Cass button, as September will bring a whole new premium badge for your satisfaction and enjoyment.

See you at the Craft Table!
