Craft Supply Swap at Creative Cafe
November 13 @ 5:30 pm
Flint Handmade Craft Supply Swaps will now be held INDOORS at Creative Cafe on the Second Friday of the month from 5:30-7:30pm and on the Second Saturday of the month from 10am-Noon!
HOW CRAFT SUPPLY SWAPS WORK
1) Gather up clean craft supplies in good condition that you no longer use or want. Hold on to these supplies until the day of the Swap.
Supplies may include, but are not limited to fabric, thread, ribbon, sewing notions, buttons, patterns, crafting books, scrapbook supplies, adhesives, painting supplies, embroidery hoops & floss, yarn, crochet hooks, knitting needles, beads and beading supplies.
2) At the Swap, we have tables for every craft supply category (e.g. yarn, fabric, scrapbooking, etc.). If you bring supplies to Swap, Flint Handmade volunteers will sort your items onto the appropriate tables.
3) Please bring your supplies in cardboard boxes or plastic bags that you do not need returned. You are welcome to arrive up to 30 minutes early to drop off items for our volunteers to begin sorting.
Swaps will start at the posted time to ensure all Swappers have equal access to all craft supplies. You make take as much or as little as you want whether you brought items or not.
4) Swappers must bring their own bags for the supplies they would like to take. Flint Handmade tote bags will be available for purchase for $5 each.
Swappers are invited to make a $3-$5 suggested donation to support Flint Handmade.
5) When the Swap ends, our volunteers will add any remaining supplies to the FREE Community Art & Craft Supply Closet. More info at https://www.facebook.com/share/p/17S9ZDei97/
Free admission. Open to the public. All ages welcome.
