This Wednesday December 19th from 9pm to midnight at Akbar, It’s the LAST CraftNight of 2018!!!
Project: Ornament painting!
$3 donation, please!
Local Vendors selling cool stuff!
We’re havin’ a lil’ ring-ding, with vendors and cocktails and treats! I’ll have paints and wooden ornaments for you to decorate! Cocktails and music and the final CraftNight of 2018 will welcome you heartily with hugs and winter joy.
I do love a wintry gathering, with people like yourself milling about, talking together, meeting one another anew or in fond reacquaintance. I’ll put a log on the fire (or at least turn the switch on the artificial fire I’ll bring to the festivities, lol.)
See you at the Craft Table,
Craft Captain JP
After December 19th, CraftNight goes on hiatus and will be back on January 9th, 2019!

SparkleBlob’s Holiday Show opened last weekend, for this weekend, we have a some seats available for DECEMBER 15th and 16th, all other shows SOLD OUT!!! Get yer tickets NOW!!! (see below this post)
Well if it isn’t time for an Ornament Jam, I don’t know what is! Come on over and make an ornament for the tree, for a friend, for a loved one, for yourself! We’ll have the regular sparkles and puffs, as well as joyful merriment and plenty of cocktails to warm you up! Painting? YES! Jems? YES! Hanging ’em up and admiring them? YES YES YES!!!
If holiday stress and weirdness starts to cramp your style, just remember that in the end, your heart will outlast the ripples of your thought. The glorious sediment of who you are is always settled and sleeping beneath all the agitation of everyday irritants and mundane to-do lists. You ARE the ornament on the tree just like you’re the fizz in the drink!
In the midst of the seasonal brambles, don’t forget to give to yourself the gift of you, and when you’re ready: pass it on!
It’s togetherness, the sound of your voice, listening to someone, holding hands, memories, reaching out, a postcard, a phone call, a meal, truth and soul… these are what we all need for each other this December and always.
See you at the Craft Table,
Craft Captain JP

SparkleBlob’s Holiday Show opens THIS SATURDAY!!! (more info belowww)
Tonight we’ll have CraftNight Lieutenant, Lucy, at the helm, helping you with crafts for this rainy day evening!
I’ve carefully selected seasonal favorites from our CraftNight vaults, and you may pick and choose from the menagerie of delights!
If holiday craziness has you running amuck, then come in, have a cocktail and ENJOY making a gift for a treasured loved one. You COULD spend $25 on some trinket that may or may not fill their heart with rapture, but it’s always a crapshoot, isn’t it?
There’s just something about a hand hewn love token that let’s someone know you really care about them, because you used your MIND and your HANDS thinking about them the whole time. And I mean… you could also just make a lil’ something for yourself, since it’s fun, and why the heck not? It’ll be a warm and cozy setup in Akbar’s rumpus room, arrive and unwind!
See you at the Craft Table,
Craft Captain JP

Project: PASTA MENORAHS!
$3 donation, please! • $5 Drink Specials!
SparkleBlob’s Holiday Show is HAPPENING (more info belowww)
We can’t have you standing there just holding candles in your HANDS like a dork for Hanukkah, can we? One needs a proper menorah for such things. I mean, we’re not animals. To make sure you’re not creating any seasonal faux pas for the festival of lights, I give you, PASTA MENORAHS!
That’s right, featuring the finest in macaroni and lasagna products, fashion for yourself a candelabrum suitable for holding eight Hanukkah candles, plus the shamash (the extra ninth one in the middle you use to light the other candles). And if you’re not celebrating Hanukkah, you’ll still have an awesome candle holder you can use for any occasion made of pasta!
Make your pasta menorah, then dress it up with paint, glitter glue, gems, stuff I have layin’ around, you know, the crafty bits! And then, commmencing on December 2nd, you’ll be ready to light candles, eat fried food, gamble (dreidel), go to parties, and create a bit of light in the darkness of winter.
It’s gonna rain tonight, but nothing’s keeping me from hosting a lovely evening of gluing lasagna noodles to rigatoni pieces! Come on over, we’ll warm you up with a lil’ rainy day cocktail.
See you at the Craft Table,
Craft Captain JP
