5.02.2014Much love to Vancouver Foundation & the Neighbourhood Small Grants Program
Yay! I got my Neighbourhood Small Grant via Vancouver Foundation. This means I'll be organizing 4 Crafternoons in-between now and the end of November. So kewl! I received $500 to cover the cost of supplies. And big thanks to the North Vancouver City Library for partnering up and donating space for the upcycling workshops.
 I've updated my Thrifty By Design website with the dates. I have one more to schedule - maybe a summer Crafternoon. We'll see!  The grant process is closed but if you have a fun idea for helping neighbours connect and engage in their community then you should definitely apply next year!  Big thanks to Vancouver Foundation for supporting Crafternoons! Super pumped to make FAB crafty things happen!

  Denise Corcoran (aka Thrifty By Design) is a local author, crafter, upcycler and workshop facilitator based in North Vancouver, BC. Her passion is to turn 'junk' into new and funky pieces. She shares her enthusiasm for crafting and upcycling by facilitating 'Crafternoons' throughout Vancouver.   The crafty book I authored, Raw Crafts: 40 Projects from Hemp, Jute, Burlap & Cork, is now available online. The book includes 40 easy peasy DIYs using hemp, jute, burlap, cork and mixed media.
