TONIGHT! Halloween Bracelet! • September 26th, 2018

TONITE! CRAFTNIGHT! >> WED • Sept 26th, 2018 • Akbar • 9pm to midnight (or later!) 
Craft Project: Halloween Bracelet!

*******$4 PABST/TECATES • $5 Cocktail Special: Brews that are True! 
*********$3 suggested donation, please!

I do not care a FIG that it’s still September, I have so many wondrous Halloween crafts for October that we’re starting NOW. We have to start you off with some couture, dahling, we can’t have you wandering around in your same old rick-rack, we must have an upgrade! I’ve got what you need to gussy up your seasonal plastic jewelry collection, our selection of shiny baubles is PERFECT for these emerging autumn soirees you’ll surely be attending.

It is the night of the waning gibbous, the Harvest Moon came and went, it’s light still illuminating the dregs of everyone’s gardens. Changing moonlight calls to mind the changing nature of all the things.

We walk and drive around on a planet where small creatures fly above our heads and sing stuff. Colorful, juicy things grow on trees, you can eat some of it, it grows from dirt. There’s running water just about everywhere you go, and if you want to, you can use that water to go wash the tiredness from your face WHENEVER YOU WANT.

It’s true it’s here it’s now. It’s a goddamn miracle.

You can always think there’s bigger game to hunt, larger mountains to climb, a different “you” to build… but we like you right this moment just fine. Sweet person, you’re worth it, come make a pretty trinket for your wrist. You can craft… for inspiration.

See you at the Craft Table,

JP Craft Captain

It’s FREE to the public, and afterward, it’s CraftNight! There will be handouts, and information about stuff like earthquakes, flooding, and more! Please RSVP if you’ll be there! Click Here! 

Now then: We’re making apple bracelets, because it’s apple season. It’s almost Autumn, no it is NOT Autumn yet. But we’re right there on the edge, just teetering, just tottering on the edge of summer’s end, with the arrival of the Fall equinox palpably close to it’s pumpkin-flavored start date! We can hardly wait, but as we wait… we’re making apple bracelets with cool metal apple charms and fun translucent plastic beads. Featuring red, green and gold apples, this is quite the pre-fall fashion accessory!

This project is quite dainty and pretty. No one’s going to think you’re doing football tryouts if you wear this little ditty on your wrist. You might even have to over explain yourself, or wave your arms wildly to make a point, because apple bracelets aren’t particularly known for being part of one’s “power play” wardrobe. I think this is a terrible mistake, because apples are badass, hearty fruits, and make a fine totem for one navigating the rat race’s many pitfalls. Apples are an American icon, they go in pies, they fit in a lunch sack perfectly, they make great cider, and more! 

The average apple tree lives 100 years! And apples are really good for your brain’s mental alertness because they’re packed with boron, which aides in mental clarity and bone health. All in all, apples promote longevity and strength, so if someone doesn’t vibe with your apple bracelet, don’t let ’em phase you, they don’t understand the power of the illustrious, robust pomme de terre.

See you at the Craft Table,
