Spring is in the air and Craft2.0 is back. Wellington’s favour­ite indie craft mar­ket returns to The­New­Dowse this Sat­urday Octo­ber 30th. Instead of hibern­at­ing, loads of crafty types from wel­ling­ton, and a bit bey­ond spent their winter months get­ting excited and mak­ing things, with one pur­pose in mind – Craft2.0.

Craft2.0 is a spe­cial shop­ping exper­i­ence, its tal­en­ted stall-hold­ers offer the chance to buy dir­ect from the maker.  This fair Craft2.0 has pretty much exploded all over The­New­Dowse for Octo­ber, expand­ing upstairs with a free craft­ing room and a whole new space for shop­ping.

Some of you like me might shrink in hor­ror at the thought of Christ­mas shop­ping, but Craft2.0 does make it a tiny bit easi­er, as a one stop shop of won­der­ful things. The oth­er advant­age of deal­ing  to Christ­mas shop­ping early is that you have more time for cock­tails, parties and more cock­tails in Decem­ber.

So head along to The­New­Dowse on Sat­urday between 10am and 3pm, eat cup­cakes, make things, buy things for loved ones and bliss out in the won­der­ful world of hand­made.

Or why not just eat cup­cakes and treat your­self.
