Starfleet!

Hey Everyone!

I'm working on some magnetic buttons, and the first to be made is very special: a Starfleet com-badge! Now with a quick tap, I can communicate with the bridge, engineering, or maybe the pizza delivery guy down in the lobby!

The Carl Wagan Bookmobile!

Hello All!

This Man of Craft was captured in a promotional video for The Carl Wagan Bookmobile!

To be honest I'm not represented as a crafter here, but they do make it look like I know what I'm doing with a ukelele! Check out the link: Carl Wagan Promo Video

They are doing great things engaging the community and getting people thinking and doing creative things - now that sounds pretty awesome to me!

Gifts of My Hands - Gift Show! Pt. 2

Hello, hello!

Back in December, Man of Craft participated in the Gifts Of My Hands gift show. Myself and the First Lady of Craft* had a super time interacting with all of the attendees and vendors.

This was Man of Craft's very first gift show in Toronto, and I was very fortunate to have been invited by organizer and fellow vendor Nici Shipway. Nici found me on Etsy and asked if I would like to participate. Of course!

There were a lot of family and friends that showed up to support me, and I thank you all very much! I was able to showcase my wares to a much larger audience, and I had a great time doing it.

I was able to sell some product, take some orders and get the ol' name out there. Yes!

Here are a few images of myself and the setup from the event. I totally forgot to take pictures, so I've also included some product pics taken from before the show.

*Without whom much of what I do wouldn't be possible. Thank you!

Best,

Adam Grant

New Diggs - Getting Set Up

Hiya!

So I've recently moved from Parkdale to the Glen Park area (still Toronto, yeah!), and with that move came a lot of disturbance to the craft 'Force'. The new work area is almost set up and ready to go. I'm looking forward to getting back into it, and the Gifts Of My Hands gift show coming up on December 15th will give me a lot of reason to burn my butt off. :O (not literally!)

Best,

Gifts Of My Hands - Gift Show! Pt. 1

Hello MOC followers!!

I will be a vendor at an upcoming gifts show in December, called Gifts Of My Hands. It will be my very first gift show, and will be held on Saturday, December 15th, at the Sorauren Park Fieldhouse!

Although I know that December can be one of the busiest months of the year, I would like to invite you to come to the show, and hope you are able to attend. With all the other talented artists and crafters also present, it would be amazing to have some support by way of seeing your happy faces. :D

If you are intending on attending, please print out THIS FLYER and bring to the event. Not only does it give you all the information you need on when/how to get there, but each one of you that brings one of these flyers to the show will let the organizers know that I've invited you (it has my name in the bottom right hand box). If I bring in the most support the cost of my table at the show will be paid for!

Here is a link to the event page online, so you can take a look through and see who else will be there besides Man of Craft: Gifts of My Hands Vendors

There should be a lot to choose from, and you'll be able to pick up some amazing and unique gifts for the holidays!

WHEN: December 15th 2012 from 11:00 am until 6:00pm
WHERE: Sorauren Park Fieldhouse (50 Wabash Ave) Both floors
CITY: Toronto, ON

I would LOVE to see you there!

Best,

Adam Grant
