Upcycled To-A-Tee Workshop with GoGo Craft at Teahouse

There are many exciting things to be had in Berkeley, but a more than a few gems are found when you ask around. I recently was speaking with my friends at Teahouse Studio about the goings-on in their fair city and was excited to hear about something happening right there next week!

Teahouse Studio is a new space in Berkeley run by local artists that enjoy promoting wonderful creativity & sustainability in our everyday lives. It's no wonder that they would want to host a workshop with GoGo Craft! Creativity & sustainability is totally their market! And in fact, they usually bring it to you!

Check out this fun new workshop next Tuesday at Teahouse! It's only a hop, skip & a jump away from BART, too!

Holiday Craft Sale at KnitOneOne in Berkeley - TONIGHT!

Just a hop, skip & a jump across the Bay, Sile Convery's studio, Knit One One, will be hosting their final Holiday Craft Sale.

For anyone who loves shopping local and buying handmade gifts, this promises to be one of the best places to do so.

I've sold at Knit One One in the past with nerd JERK and I really enjoyed the vibe! Great music, lovely food for the vendors & quite a sense of community. They've also recently been featured in the SF Chronicle so that helped bring in quite a steady strem of traffic!

Since it's in the evening, it promises to be quite a party! Sile says of the event: "We have Fist of Flour pizza selling outside. Complimentary Sangria inside. And.....lots of fabulous goodies for your shopping pleasure!"

Among those that will be vending are some of our very own: This Humble Abode & recent Etsy Featured Seller, KatherineJLee! Also, AngelMade Eco Spa (my recent favourite - I even interviewed her) will be selling her lovely organic bodycare products to keep everyone's skin fabulously fresh this holiday season.

From tasty treats to treatments and ties, the last Holiday Craft Sale at Knit One One will be awesome!

The show runs from 5 to 9 PM TONIGHT in Berkeley (3360 Adeline Sreet), right up the way from Sweet Adeline Bakery. For more info call Sile (pronouced Sheila) at 510.891.1355 or visit knitoneone online.
