Just a reminder that applications are open for the May 2011 Kraftbomb!

Kraftbomb will be held on Sunday 29th May 2011. Come along and join our amazing vendors, sip some of Fred's fantastic lemonade, eat some cupcakes and soak up the crafty goodness.

APPLICATIONS CLOSED
Applications closed Friday 13th May 2011

Applications will close on Friday 13th May 2011 and we will be in touch a few days after this date. Please don't worry if you haven't heard from us straight away. It sometimes takes us a few days to go through applications and we always email both successful and unsuccessful applicants.

To be fair to those that do apply during this time, we cannot accept any applications after this date and hope you all understand.

Due to increasing numbers of applications and the popularity of Kraftbomb we may not be able to give you the table size you apply for and some full table requests may be offered a half table spot.

We receive so many applications for Kraftbomb and do our best to give everyone a chance to sell and to fit as many people in as possible. Please, please do not be offended or take it personally if you don't get a spot. We simply cannot fit everyone in each time and we find it extremely hard to go through the applications and pick out the successful applicants. We sometimes stand people down for a month to let a new vendor have a spot and we try to be as fair as possible.

We do read through every application, visit each blog and view your photos. If you don't have a blog or Flickr, then please email us through your photos. We've had a few people apply with amazing sounding projects who never sent through photos and didn't get a spot.

We also do our best to pick vendors who are making products that fit into Kraftbomb's quirky style of crafts and will compliment existing vendors products. If you're not sure if your crafts would fit, come along to a Kraftbomb and have a look around and get a feel for the atmosphere. You can pop by and say hello and introduce yourself to Karla (Geek Freeks) or City (NZ Cupcake Queen) too!

We look forward to all your applications and seeing everyone at the next Kraftbomb.

Small Faces

2010-09-26T17:35:00.002+13:00

Today at Kraftbomb I met...

A delicious custard square from Geek Freeks: I like his indifferent expression! The detail is amazing: the blanket stitching to make the crinkled cookie-cutter edges, the icing sitting on top of the pastry, and the squidgy sides are so realistic! I'd eat him but I'm still full from my all-cupcake breakfast. I also met cute Frida (from the previous post), with her lovely 'bung eye', and last but not least, Angry Cat, a present from Heleen of Ruby in the Dust. The face! So cute... so angry. I love him.

Make Believe's stall.

2010-09-23T10:23:00.000+12:00

Some new teacups and my best attempt at a Frida will be on my stall this weekend at Kraftbomb- plus a new set of map magnets, all the best places are back! and lots more. Hope y'all can make it!

Isn't her bung eye cute? :P

September Flyer...

This Sunday past.

2010-08-31T20:43:00.001+12:00

It was a wonderful second birthday for Kraftbomb on Sunday- I thoroughly enjoyed my time at my stall as always but did miss the presence of Fred. I took a few pictures I thought I'd share with y'all.

A film crew came to interview the wonderful 2 who make this happen each week.

I'd really love Trixie Delicious' Sex Palace lamp!

My new Mexico inspired pompom bags.

And my wee stall. Looking rather empty this month!

And my one purchase of the day was this amazingly sweet cup, complete with house and garden underneath by Sarah Hunter. It's a gift but I want to keep it for myself!

See you next month!

We are pleased to announce that applications are now open for the September Kraftbomb!! Kraftbomb will be held on Sunday 26th September 2010. Come along and join our amazing vendors, sip some of Fred's amazing lemonade, eat some cupcakes and soak up the crafty goodness.

APPLICATIONS OPEN
Applications close Thursday 9th September

Applications will close on Thursday 9th September 2010 and we will be in touch a few days after this date. Please don't worry if you haven't heard from us straight away. It sometimes takes us a few days to go through applications and we always email both successful and unsuccessful applicants.

To be fair to those that do apply during this time, we cannot accept any applications after this date and hope you all understand.

We receive so many applications for Kraftbomb and do our best to give everyone a chance to sell and to fit as many people in as possible. Please, please do not be offended or take it personally if you don't get a spot. We simply cannot fit everyone in each time and we find it extremely hard to go through the applications and pick out the successful applicants. We sometimes stand people down for a month to let a new vendor have a spot and we try to be as fair as possible.

We do read through every application, visit each blog and view your photos. If you don't have a blog or Flickr, then please email us through your photos. We've had a few people apply with amazing sounding projects who never sent through photos and didn't get a spot.

We also do our best to pick vendors who are making products that fit into Kraftbomb's quirky style of crafts and will compliment existing vendors products. If you're not sure if your crafts would fit, come along to a Kraftbomb and have a look around and get a feel for the atmosphere. You can pop by and say hello and introduce yourself to Karla (Geek Freeks) or City (NZ Cupcake Queen) too!

We look forward to all your applications and seeing everyone at the next Kraftbomb.

Keep it krafty!

KRAFTBOMB'S 1st BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION!!!!

2009-08-31T07:58:00.005+12:00

Kraftbomb's 1st birthday went really well! There was a great turnout and the weather was pretty good apart from a few torrential downpours. City made an enormous cupcake cake to raffle off which went down a hit and I was cleared out of plush party food in an hour!

City and I (Karla) just can't believe it has been a whole year of Kraftbombing madness!!! We are so proud of Kraftbomb and the incredibly unique handcrafts that our vendors create and would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thankyou to all our amazing vendors and all the shoppers that come along every month, Kraftbomb wouldn't be able to continue without all of you!!

Here are a few shots from the day, unfortunately (or fortunately!) I was quite busy and didn't get the time to take very many.

setting up!

the happy vendors and shoppers!

More press!! Viva again!

2009-06-08T15:13:00.003+12:00

Photo courtesy Toggle Blog

We've been so busy with our full time jobs/study, crafting and of course running our baby Kraftbomb, that we haven't been too good at updating our press!

We're stoked that The NZ Herald's Viva on 22/04/09 ran a whole feature on craft! "The Art of Craft" by Zoe Walker was a great showcase of the craft revolution going on in NZ and abroad. The best bit is the lovely ladies Esther and Shelley from our sponsors Toggle were interviewed and there were a few products from both Kraftbomb and Toggle regulars featured in the spread!

Keep it Krafty!!

2009-06-08T14:37:00.003+12:00

Since the April Kraftbomb we have been proud to have a bigger, better and brighter street presence each month with our fantastic LARGE Kraftbomb posters. We've come a long way from the A3 posters we started out with nearly a year ago, they seem so small now!

The Profile Plus poster boys have been hard at work putting our new big posters up each month and we think they not only look great, they are definitely helping us get a whole new lot of visitors to Kraftbomb who perhaps hadn't heard of us before!

So keep an eye out for the posters around town. The June posters will be up very soon!

Here are some more shots of the May posters (photos courtesy of Profile Plus)

June Kraftbomb - Applications now open!

2009-05-15T15:00:00.004+12:00

We are pleased to announce that applications are now open for the June 2009 Kraftbomb!

CLICK HERE
for the June application form!

Applications will close Sunday 7th June 2009 and we will be in touch a couple of days after this date. Please don't worry if you haven't heard from us straight away. It sometimes takes us a few days to go through applications and we always email both successful and unsuccessful applicants.

To be fair to those that do apply during this time, we cannot accept any applications after this date and hope you all understand.

We receive so many applications for Kraftbomb and do our best to give everyone a chance to sell and to fit as many people in as possible. Please, please do not be offended or take it personally if you don't get a spot. We simply cannot fit everyone in each time and we find it extremely hard to go through the applications and pick out the successful applicants. We sometimes stand people down for a month to let a new vendor have a spot and we try to be as fair as possible.

We do read through every application, visit each blog and view your photos. If you don't have a blog or Flickr, then please email us through your photos. We've had a few people apply with amazing sounding projects who never sent through photos and didn't get a spot.

We also do our best to pick vendors who are making products that fit into Kraftbombs quirky style of crafts and will compliment existing vendors products. If you're not sure if your crafts would fit, come along to a Kraftbomb and have a look around and get a feel for the atmosphere. You can pop by and say hello and introduce yourself to Karla (Geek Freeks) or City (NZ Cupcake Queen) too!

We look forward to all your applications and seeing everyone at the next Kraftbomb.

Keep it krafty!

Thankyou!!!!

2008-12-22T08:38:00.003+13:00

Firstly we would like to say a very big thankyou to all the people who have been vendors at Kraftbomb and all the shoppers that have kept Kraftbomb going, we really couldn't have done it without all of you!
The last 5 months have been very hard, stressful and rewarding all at the same time and we are so happy that Kraftbomb has been received well!!

We will be taking a short and much needed break between xmas and new years so we won't be answering any emails in that time however be assured that we will get to them after the break.

And lastly we would like to wish everyone a very merry xmas and a safe and happy new years!!

Much craft love
Karla and City

Thankyou so much to everyone who has applied for the December 21st Kraftbomb!

We do encourage you to apply for the January 25th Kraftbomb BUT Applications have NOT OPENED YET!
If you send an application through before we open them it will be lost forever in the huge expanse that is "the world wide web"

December Kraftbomb - applications now open!

2008-12-02T10:41:00.003+13:00

We are pleased to announce that applications are now open for the special December Christmas Kraftbomb!

We've broken our tradition of having our event on the last Sunday of the month so we can squeeze in one final Kraftbomb on Sunday 21st December, just before Christmas so everyone can get some last minute Christmas shopping in :-)

CLICK HERE
for the December application form!

Applications will close Monday 8th December

Due to the tight schedule with Kraftbomb being a week earlier we cannot accept any applications after this date.

For December the Grey Lynn Community Centre has kindly let us have both the main hall and the garden room (the original location for the first 2) so we can fit some extra vendors in and have plenty of room for our loyal Kraftbomb shoppers!

We are getting an overwhelming response to Kraftbomb and doing our best to give everyone a chance to sell and to fit as many people in as possible. Please, please do not be offended or take it personally if you don't get a spot. We simply cannot fit everyone in each time and we find it extremely hard to go through the applications and pick out the successful applicants. We do read through every application, visit each blog and view your photos. We also try to pick vendors who are making products that fit into Kraftbombs quirky style of crafts and will compliment exisiting vendors products.

We look forward to all your applications and seeing everyone at the big Christmas Kraftbomb :-)

Don't forget! Kraftbomb Sunday 30th Nov!

2008-11-26T23:25:00.002+13:00

Make sure you write in your diary that Kraftbomb is on THIS Sunday 30th November!

Join us at the Grey Lynn Community Centre from 11am - 2pm for more crafty goodness, yummy food, great people and awesome music!

See you there

Our Best Intentions

2008-11-24T16:54:00.004+13:00

Our intentions for Kraftbomb were to create a happy, sharing and fun craft experience for everyone involved where people can buy quirky, different and quality handmade crafts! (please don't be offended if you don't fit into this category) We have received a few upset emails from people who we haven't been able to fit in, if you are one of these people please don't send us shitty emails, it is not personal, we are doing our very best. I don't know if anyone comprehends how hard we work trying to organise Kraftbomb. We receive soooooo many applications and we only have limited space and basically have to turn away half of the applicants, not something we like to do. And just because you apply does not mean you automatically are guaranteed a table. We hate having to be the mean guys....We aren't bad people, we aren't disloyal and we aren't cruel, we are just trying to run this like a business. We don't make any money from this aside from what we make selling our crafts on the day, all money goes to paying for the venue and advertising.

We hope you understand
Peace, Love and light

November Kraftbomb

2008-11-10T09:59:00.002+13:00

Applications have now closed for the November Kraftbomb, we will be sorting through them in the next couple of days and emailing everyone! If you missed out and would like to apply for the December Kraftbomb keep checking back here for the application dates!!

Fred's lemondade success!!!

2008-11-02T15:25:00.007+13:00

I think everyone knows that Karla and I are big fans of 6yr old Fred who sells his yummy lemonade at Kraftbomb. If you haven't met him yet and tasted his amazing fizzy lemonade, you are missing out!!

Fred's been selling his lemonade at Kraftbomb to raise money to buy a skateboard, which we think is a pretty awesome goal to have! We just got an email from his Mum Karen (who has her own rad stall Luxford St) to let us know the good news:

Hey guys
Cause you guys have been so fabulously supportive of Fred's lemonade stand, thought you might like to see that Fred has purchased the long hankered for Skateboard along with safety pads. It's a Powell golden dragon and he has been practising and watching the accompanying DVD religously since yesterday.
He said to me that it was the best day of his life when he bought it!!
He is now saving (next kraftbomb) up for a skate helmet, as he is currently wearing his bike helmet, and some skate shoes!
So thanks guys we couldn't have done it without your support! We love kraftbomb!

And here are some pics of Fred on the new board! Congrats Fred and good luck at the November Kraftbomb raising money for your helmet and shoes!!

Make sure you try his lemondade, its GOOOOOOD!

November application reminder

2008-11-02T15:22:00.003+13:00

Just a reminder, applications for the November Kraftbomb will close on Friday 7th November!

Due to overwhelmimg response to Kraftbomb, we've had to start using an application form process to make it easier for everyone. We've also had to put a cut off date in place for applications so we can have a better chance at getting everyone in and giving new people a chance to join in the fun.

Applications will close Friday 7th November!

Kraftbomb October has been and gone!

2008-11-02T15:06:00.005+13:00

A big thank you to all who came along to our 3rd Kraftbomb event. This one was our first time in the bigger hall with more vendors and a whole lot more space for everyone. We did have a few teething problems on the day involving last minute shuffling of tables, fire exit issues, sickness and rain!! But we thank you for being patient and understanding. We are always striving to make Kraftbomb an enjoyable event for everyone involved and do our best to accommodate everyones needs.

Even though it was raining off and on we were stoked with how many people braved the weather to come along. Due to being in the bigger hall we had some new vendors and it was great to have new faces! Coffee on sale was a big bonus on a wet day and Fred the Lemonade Boy was back!

The legend Chris Knox very kindly played for us and I think I can safely say everyone loved his set! Warming up the crowd before him was the very talented Edward Waka who was a hit.

So head on over to City's Flick page to check out more Kraftbomb photos

For those of you wanting to apply for the November one, please apply ASAP! We are being inundated with applications already, so please head to our form and apply. Due to demand we now have a closing date for applications on 7th November which is something we haven't done before.

Thanks to vendors, visitors, the lovely Toggle ladies and all the behind the scenes helpers who make Kraftbomb so much fun! We'll see you all next month, Sunday 30th November

Kraftbomb goes Craft2.0

2008-10-15T20:30:00.007+13:00

City and I went down to Wellington with our husbands Alex and Chris to be part of Craft2.0, here's a few pics of our trip...

At first Alex was excited...then he was nonchalant...

Inside Craft2.0..

Then Wellington gave Alex and I hives..warning these photos contain graphic images!! (my hive at the bottom looks like The Eye of Sauron!)

We saw some cool graffiti, this was my favourite..

After a few days we jumped on a plane and flew home, stay tuned for episode 2 of "Kraftbomb goes Craft2.0"

September Kraftbomb in all it's glory!!

2008-10-01T20:14:00.007+13:00

Here are some sweet photos taken by Karla's tattoo apprentice, the lovely Ben (he was the creepy guy walking round with the big camera being creepy, with a big camera!)

ready for round 2?

2008-09-06T20:56:00.003+12:00

No sooner have we all started recovering from the very first Kraftbomb, its time to prepare for the next one.

The second Kraftbomb will be held on Sunday 28th September, at the Grey Lynn Community Centre from 1-4pm.

This event will still be in the Garden room, but please note that from October onwards, Kraftbomb's new home will be in the much larger main hall at the Grey Lynn Community Centre. We've outgrown our little room already but unfortuntely we can't have the larger room for another month. So please bare with us, we know the smaller venue isn't ideal but it is only for one more Kraftbomb.

We are planning a super fantastic Kraftbomb for October to celebrate our new venue!
