Have plans on Monday night? Well, you do now! Start off the New Year on the right foot and come try out a new craft with us at our weekly Craft Night at the Etsy Labs in Brooklyn. Each craft night is also broadcast live into in the Treehouse room of the Virtual Labs. All demos will be shown both in the Labs in Brooklyn and in the Treehouse online.
Craft Night occurs every Monday from 4-8pm at 325 Gold Street, 3rd floor in Brooklyn, New York. Each week the Etsy Labs organize a skill-sharing project. We provide supplies, tools, space, and know-how. Participants are also welcome to bring their own project to work on independently. Craft night is a time to create, learn new skills, and hang out.
On Monday, January 5th we will be embroidering cards! Create thank you cards for all those thoughtful friends who spoiled you this holiday season or get started on your valentines!
If you are joining us at the Etsy Labs in Brooklyn, please bring card stock, embroidery thread, a sewing needle and a simple outline design. If you don’t have these supplies on hand, don’t worry; we’ll have lots of extra supplies for you!
If you are joining us virtually for Craft Night this week and would like to craft along with us, you’ll need a few supplies:
- Card stock
- Tracing paper
- Scissors
- Thread
- Sewing needle
- A simple outline to embroider
Or, just be ready to take some notes and see if this is a project you’d like to try out later on.
