Underwater Bliss • July 13th, 2016

mighty_bikin

This WednesdayJuly 13th, 2016 from 9pm until midnight (or later) at Akbar, it’s CRAFTNIGHT. 
Project: Underwater Bliss Craft Kit Times    
$3 Processing fee, please
$4 Drink Specials at Akbar: Akbar, take me away!

Things are heating up in more ways than one.
In the midst of everything, let’s do some crafts.

CraftNight craft kits engineered for prime excellence are here to remind you that it’s summertime. Your kit contains mermaids, sea creatures, and extra sparkly bits! All you’ve got to  do is empty the contents of the kit on the table, follow or unfollow the directions, and spend some contemplative time assembling the pieces however you like.

The ocean is the world’s most shared resource, something we all have together. You yourself and everyone you know is 57% agua. The sea calls to us all the time, perhaps heed it’s call, get on your flippy-floppys, and go to the water. Mermaids, crabs and jellyfish can’t be wrong.
See you at the Craft Table,

JP Craft Captain

Rainbow Button Fish Tableau • May 6th, 2015

Rainbow Button Fish Tableau • May 6th, 2015

swirly

This Wednesday, May 6th, 2015 from 9pm until midnight (or later) at Akbar, it’s CRAFTNIGHT!!!
Project: Rainbow Button Fish Wall Hanging Kit   
$3 Processing fee, please
$4 Drink Specials, it’s a dry heat, quench that parched throat for heaven’s sake!   
EXCITING MEGA RAFFLE!!! (info below craft info)

This week we’ve got a craft kit trophy even your staunch republican family will appreciate! It looks like you hunted this fish all by yourself and mounted it on your wall! It’s made from craft foam and colorful buttons, easy to put together, but looks really complicated like it took you three days!

Fool people into thinking you’re one of those people who is out on the water by 5am tackle box in hand. Point at your button fish wall hanging and tell a fishing tail of how it really gave you a rough time, it was like Hemingway’s “The Old Man and the Sea” struggling beyond all belief until you reeled it in! Nobody will be the wiser, since we live in a city and people think that cows are goats!

And on that note, I’ll say that I’m actually typing this email yards away from Lake Tahoe, on my honeymoon!!! I’m very far away!!! A big thank you to all crafters who helped with wedding decorations for the last 3 CraftNights!!!

At the helm this week running the Craft Table will be CraftNight Lieutenant, Veronica LeBron! She will give you your supplies and also entice you to be a part of our mega raffle. Here’s the info:
