Swap-O-Rama-Rama

June 27, 2008 by Jamie 1 Comment

This weekend the Swap-O-Rama-Rama (sorr) is being held on saturday june 28th in Venice, California. sorr is an international clothing swap held in nyc, san francisco, tel aviv, and many, many more cities. This will be the second one taking place in LA. Here’s the deal: bring $5 and bag of unwanted clothes (or $10 without clothes), and rummage through the pounds of clothes brought in by other swappers. At the swap you can have your items altered, hemmed, or completely changed into another item altogether. You can also have your garments embellished with silkscreen prints, appliques, or bleached-out stencils. And you can take as much as you can carry!

The super talented team from Social Studies Design will be on hand to help you make your fabulous creations! Aldo will be unveiling 5 new images for silkscreening, and Sean will be helping you create plush monsters out of old clothes. Look at these adorable silk screened designs! Just imagine taking one of your plain tees and transforming it with one of these fab prints!

Saturday June 28th from 11-5
Venice Center for Peace with Justice and the Arts.
the address: 2210 Lincoln Blvd, Venice CA
(one block NE of Venice Blvd/Lincoln Blvd)

Independent Crafters Information

On the Indie Crafts section of CraftGossip I like to support other indie artists by posting tips about running a handmade business, blogging and other helpful information. Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources. Or if you just love DIY's and everything crafty I hope you'll find some fun projects to make and be inspired by the artists I feature!
