Jelli-Genius!
I’ve written about Craft Cartel member Jellibat before and how super dooper clever she is. But hell, I reckon she has so surpassed herself with this one.
so you decided to head out into the Australian Bush for a relaxing day, it peaceful and all is quiet save a few chattering galahs.
you set up a lovely picnic under the shade of a giant old gum tree.
you then hear a strange rustling of leaves from above, you look up and see a shady looking figure block out the sun right above you..
then …
Plop! grab! agh!!
you’ve been attacked by a drop bear!
I laughed so hard! And it’s absolutely what they look like!
Go on, you know you want to.
Hey and yeah I know I’m real quiet at the mo. I’m super busy finishing cross stitch kits, writing zines, aplpying for a job, ******* *** **********, and looking after a baby who has her first cough. But after six years of blogging (I know!) I’ve learnt to not feel bad about it, almost.
Boing!
I just have to share this exciting news. One of our Craft Cartel members Jellibat has had one of her latest products featured on Boing Boing!
He’s a poor bunny who was saved from a science lab, his brain sometimes pops right out of his head.
Unfortunately this one of a kind item has been sold and there ain’t no pattern but you can always check out her Etsy store for more fun things. Or even better come to the next Cartel and buy one for yourself! I’ve got one of Jellibat’s keyrings and I love it! And I am very tempted to take home the two headed lion.
Speaking of the next market, it’s gonna be a biggie. This from our market announcement:
This week is a VERY SPECIAL night for the craft cartel. We promised global domination and tonight we deliver, with the launch of our very own PODCAST! Come along to score your limited edition 1st episode on CD and find out how to subscribe and get every single episode delivered straight to your little mp3 player. Public Transport will never be boring again for our lucky listeners!
It is also St Patricks Day so we’re having a special little celebration for all things anti-colonial. The challenge is on for our stall holders to have at least one item designed to bring down an empire.
PLUS we have the wonderfully awesome Rapskallion back to tantalise our ear buds. Did you hear them a couple of markets ago? They were fantastic!
And of course the bbq will be cranking with our spunky chef spreading the love. The words getting around about the tucker so you better to be there early. Which of course gives you more time to peruse the market and share your hard-earned pennies with our amazing local crafters (who really love your support).
Did you know that buying local handmade goods will save the planet from imminent destruction?
See you there
