This Wednesday, March 12th, 2014 from 9pm until 12 (or later!) it’s CRAFTNIGHT!!!
Project: Shamrock wreath, shamrock necklace, shamrock pin.
Processing fee: $2 donation requested, thank you!
Drink Special: $4 The Lyla: Beauty outside, Beast Inside!
Special Filmstrip Screening: The Lavendar Leprachaun at 10:30 pm! (6.5 minutes)
If you detest shamrocks, then I am sorry to say, this may not be the CraftNight for you.
If you ARE into trifolium pratense, then woohoo! Come on down and get your crafts!
We’re right on the cusp of St. Patrick’s Day, this CraftNight gives you the opportunity to bedeck your surroundings and your person with a bevy of trinkets that sum up the “wearin’ o’ the green.”
To be clear, I’m talkin’ SHAMROCK, not FOUR LEAF CLOVER. We don’t just throw around four leaf clovers like they’re on discount at the five and dime. You’ve got to have serious luck to find a four leaf clover, it’s a game of chance, but I have heard that if you really want to up your odds, you should root around in a patch of trefolium repens (white clover.) And if you party hearty with the masses at Akbar on the 17th, just make sure if someone passes out and you draw incriminating things on their face, that you use a green marker. We are professionals around here, after all.
In addition to the evening’s CraftNight festivities, at 10:30pm I’m breaking out a very special rare filmstrip called The Lavender Leprechaun made many moons ago by the Walt Disney Educational Media Company. This 6 1/2 minute gem was created in 1975 and features a very interesting message that still resonates today. It is perhaps a thinly disguised nod to situations stewing and brewing in a society slowly beginning to accept certain concepts. While presented in a habitually tame and glossy way, there is an inkling that it could, either consciously or not, offer a wee bit of reassurance to those in class feeling “different.”
See you at the Craft Table,
