Hello all, it's me again. What, another post from Angie, so soon? Is it Christmas already? Ho ho ho!
Alright, just ignore that lame intro and check your calenders to see if you have anything on this Saturday. And if you do, blow it off.
I'd like to throw in a little plug here for the Made On The Left Craft Fair/pre-Christmas Designer Market that will be on THIS SATURDAY from 10am to 4pm at the Hyde Park Hotel, 331 Bulwer St, North Perth.
The goods here range from prints and cards to jewellery to bags to clothing to soft furnishings, and best of all, they are all lovingly made by West Australian designers. These are not crafts made by your granny (although I'm sure those are lovely, and I secretly wish to make myself a crochet rug one day -- as soon as I learn how to crochet). I promise you that there are plenty of things here for funky chicks and dudes (you know what, with my outdated vernacular, I might as well be a granny) who would like to own some strikingly original, unique, and in many cases, wearable, contemporary art. And the prices are pretty sweet too.
Who says you have to leave Perth to find some culture? We have it all right here.
I'll be there at around 10am, browsing for Christmas presents (which I will probably end up keeping for myself) and I might even bump into you*, who knows?
To have a peek at some of the beauties that will be on show (I want that Odd Girl Out pendant, and one of Stuffaduck's bags, and pretty much all the prints), please go to http://www.madeontheleft.com/craftfair.html
*Literally. I am very uncoordinated.
