I've heard so many great things about the maker faire in the past, so when we had the chance to get a booth there this year i was so excited! this is not your normal craft faire, it's almost like the coolest science faire, with a mix of arts & crafts, robots, sewing and knitting and more. there was so much to do and see -here are some highlights:
*swap-o-rama-rama, which is huge clothing swap, where you could sew, screen print and alter the clothes right there
*life size mouse trap- yep, from the board game, it used 8lb bowling balls crazy...
*cute little thingamagoop robots
*fire acts, huge metal sculptures and watching them create lighting inside
*the diet coke & mentos show....
*the guy who was playing the drums while knitting at the SAME time!!
all this, and Hambly was also a part of it. we were also packed at out booth! most people there never used a rub-on before so it was great to see everyones reaction. here's a pic while i was setting up, then as the crowd came in. it was very a cool space to - i loved the fence that was set up for the booth.
we also made up some special overlays packs at a huge savings to sell at the show and have a few left here.
