Another Craftwerk has been and gone!

Craftwerk was back at its usual home of St Kevins Arcade on the 14th August and boy was it a busy night. Soooo many people! The place was buzzing with talk and music. I took along 4 dozen cupcakes and they all sold out in a couple of hours. Phew. We had a great night, although it was a bit loud at times and I tend to get overwhelmed in really busy, noisy situations!

The plan was to make 6 dozen cupcakes, but I got an order for the Kate Sylvester store opening in Newmarket also on Thursday night, so that limited my baking time a bit. But the Craftwerk cupcakes were still a hit - 2 dozen jaffa (some with the always popular choccie skull and crossbones) and 2 dozen Mt Dew topped with Nerds (those badass babies will always be thanks to Natalie) plus the 48 minis for the order.

Unfortunately we were so busy, I forgot to take photos of the Mt Dew cupcakes for Craftwerk and the store opening cupcake order too (although I'm working on getting some from the lovely Nicola who placed the order). I even forgot to take a photo of our stall all set up, complete with our new pink and white polka dot table cloth - just like my business cards!!

So instead, here is a photo of the NZCQ with one of my Craftwerk purchases, a super cute "Happy Aorta" plushie by Geek Freeks.

I also purchased a very cute Nut and Bee notepad and got to catch up with lots of lovely Craftwerk regulars like Alida, Sharon and Kimberlee. I hardly got to get out from behind our table because it was so packed, so I missed on visiting alot of my favourite stalls and didn't get to buy many goodies or chat much.
