  • Crochet Your Guts Out!

    crochet
    We may crochet. We may even crochet guts. Some may knit. Or do other fibery things with guts or other body parts. Or real doily pineapples or quilts, or book arts. Or whatever.

    We’ll probably also talk a lot – among friends who can handle crocheted guts, although guts of the crocheted variety are not required.

    Interest piqued? Join us!

  • NEW CLASS: Make Your Own Custom Chocolate Mold - ADULTS ONLY! Friday September 24, 7pm

    choc mold
    make your own adult chocolate mold!

    you know you want to.

    be the hit of the party with custom shapes, sizes, angles, and proportions! use it with chocolate as well as jello, ice cubes, soap ... you name it!

    I'll take you through the whole process, you'll get to see the machines in action, do some setup, ask lots of questions and get a feel for what's involved so you can come back and do it on your own.

    choose a pre-designed adult themed shape (or send me something beforehand and maybe I can get it ready). optionally add your own short word or message. watch your part get cut out of wood on the Shopbot CNC Mill. help prepare the vacuum former to suck a piece of hot plastic into your wooden plug to create a food grade plastic mold. fill it with chocolate, cool, demold, and start nibbling.

    you'll get to take your plastic mold, wooden plug, and molded chocolate home with you!

    come back and take the vacuum former class and make more plastic molds. or also take the shopbot class and make your own new wooden shapes!

    any questions? : )

    We will build a simple netting and also a cylindrical shape to hold or wrap objects. You’ll learn the basics so you can read a pattern if you wish, or create your own designs immediately.
