Make Shop Rock 2!!!

I've got a bit more to say about Make Shop Rock 2...although Seth said quite a bit with those 2 pics, haha. First of all, the whole weekend was a blast. We spent some much needed quality time with our good friends from RayMin, and our other crafty pals.

Second of all, you may be wondering what that heck Make Shop Rock 2 was? Basically, in 2007 myself and Minette of RayMin wanted to put together a trunk show for a small group of designers of hand made goods. We added a musical element as well and came up with Make Shop Rock. It took place in April 2007 in Pittsburgh and was a hit, so we decided to invite more designers, add more music, and expand the show to 2 nights this year.

Night 1 this year took place at the home of Ray and Min of RayMin...each designer set up their own area and music was provided by Raymond Morin of Sort of Records.

Night 2 was at the Brillo Box on Penn Ave in Pittsburgh. The night was full of great music from DJ's Pete Spynda and Klaus (from Boston), and local Pittsburgh rock sweethearts Triggers.

















And of course, our crafters were in full force!

And last but not least, Family Dinner for One: We had a lot of great kids rocking our tees that night, both official MSR2 models and customers!





































All in all it was a really great time, and a success for our crafters and musicians alike! Hopefully we can do it all again next year!
