News from the Etsy Labs: 7/28 Craft Night
Article Header Image

Have plans on Monday night? Well, you do now! Dust off your crafty pants and come join us for our weekly Craft Night at the Etsy Labs in Brooklyn for an evening full of Incredible Shrinking Plastic! Each craft night is also broadcast live in the Treehouse room of the Virtual Labs. All demos will be shown both in the Etsy Labs in Brooklyn and in the Treehouse online.


For our Monday, July 28 craft night, the fabulous Christine, aka iheartmoustaches, will be teaching us how to breathe new life into old #6 plastic containers. She will be demonstrating how to use this incredible shrinking plastic to create buttons, pendants, moustaches, earrings... The possibilities are endless! Please bring a #6 plastic container with you to craft night. Look for #6 plastic in the form of strawberry containers, take out containers, etc.  All other supplies will be provided.  (We will also have spare #6 plastic available.)

 
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:

  • #6 plastic containers
  • scissors
  • sandpaper
  • permanent marker
  • color pencils
  • hole punch
  • heat gun/hair dryer/old toaster oven

Or, and you may just wish to bring a pencil to take notes.

Would you like to lead craft night or do you have an idea for a craft night project? Send your ideas to labs@etsy.com with "Craft Night idea" as the subject line. 

Have you participated in Craft Night? Share your photos with the Etsy Labs Show and Tell Flickr group!

See you Monday!

This sounds awesome! I'll definately try to be there. I'm still mourning the loss of the glow in the dark Ghostbusters shrinky dinks I had as a kid. ...ok...I'm going to go be old somewhere else now... :)
