May 15 Craft + Games Meet Up
You ready for round two?? This time our Craft + Games Meet Up will be a two team match of wits with a FAMILY FEUD game while keeping your hands busy with the craft of your choice!
This month’s games evening includes:
- Meet up from 6:30-8:30 with games starting at 7pm
- We divide into two teams to match wits on Canadian trivia; teams will be randomly assigned at arrival so you can meet new crafters
- Bring a craft that keep the fingers busy but lets the brain keep sharp! Maybe a mindless stockinette, or a portable punchneedle, countless cross stitch that just has a large area that needs filling. Anything that gives you game!
- Great way to meet new people without the inevitable forced awkward small talk!
Our first go of this fun evening was one of my childhood favs: the murder mystery like no other… Clue! We had two full games going with 11 participants and a whopping good time.
Next up will be a night of [Crafty] Family Feud! We’ll be divided into Craft Family teams and working through Canadian trivia. Depending on the number of participants we may divide into a round robin style of play to give participants extra craft time!
May FEUD night:
When: Friday May 15th 6:30 – 8:30pm
What: $10 registration that buys you a seat at the table & a $10 credit towards the purchase of a Vintage Bookshelf Board Game of your choosing. The credit will be valid until the end of the year and can be accumulated with credits from future games nights.
So what are the Vintage Bookshelf Games, you may ask? As both a crafter and a games lover, I have been eyeing these boardgames hidden inside lovely faux hardcover book covers that can hide in plain sight alongside my fav knitty patterns and book club novellas! Gotta get a Clue?
So if you want to try something a little different than your local craft socials, and are ready to get your game on, register today as we hope to create a new community space with these game evenings.
And mark your calendars: our future nights will be:
- June 12th: SCRABBLE nite!
Not sure what a good craft would be for a CRAFT + GAMES evening. Pick up one of these beforehand so you have an hour to prep to the point of being able to no-brainer craft, and you should be good to go to join us without much trouble!
- Macrame Bowl kit or Rainbow decor!
- Intro needle felting kit with everything you need!
- Want the simplest embroidery kit in the shop?
- Ready to dive into tapestry weaving??
* Note: Credit coupons will be limited to registered players in person on the night of the event; we are unable to hold onto these for no-shows. One coupon PER PERSON PER EVENT can be used for purchase of a game; but can use credit coupons from different game evenings for a single purchase (ie. attend 5 evenings & get $50 off).
