Okay, it's official: Sew Drunk will be meeting this Wednesday, 10/18, at the Vivace in Capitol Hill (901 E. Denny Way).  We've got the back room booked from 7:00 to 9:00, so come on down and bring whatever you're working on!

There has been talk of fashioning handmade pimp cups as well, so if you're feeling BeDazzled, bring your rhinestones and goblets.  Pimp cups = perfect for everyone on your holiday list!

Hope to see you all there!  We're taking suggestions for the permanent home of Sew Drunk (preferably somewhere fairly central that serves alcohol), so put your thinking caps on...

So excited to make pimp cups. Totally bedazzling myself something to drink my gin n' juice out of!

Shucks (that's spinster talk for dammit), I won't be able to make it. I have theater tickets to The Underpants...which, of course, will make me think of Yelp panties. Can't wait to see the Pimp cups! And whatever else your creative minds come up with!

I'll probably show up with some yarn and needles and a blank, confused look on my face. Anyone going to be doing a felt project?

I believe I will be knitting a plain ol' scarf.  No, it's not sexy pimp cup fun, but I need to get this one done so I can get started on my Xmas gift backlog.  Sigh.  Or I may just rebel and do something completely different...

As much as I'd like to make an exciting pimp cup on Wednesday, I a: have no time to get pimp materials, and b: am starting to knit something totally fun tonight and I know I'm going to be addicted to it come Wednesday and will spend every waking second wanting to knit it.  So yeah.  Knitting it shall be for me!

I promise I will try not to put you all to sleep, since we all know I'm the most boring person in existence.

Ok you guys - when I have out the bevy of cups and a pile-o-rhinestones you will be begging me to have a turn with the hot glue gun.

Oh yeah!

Can we really bring glue guns in there?  That was the only thing keeping me back from going on a major pimp cup supply run tomorrow.  I didn't think they'd appreciate me leaving molten glue snot all over their nice tables.  But if you think they won't care, well...

PIMPS UP!

Or is there some other kind of trusty, non-hot craft glue that we could use?  It has to be sturdy enough to withstand some major crunkalation, obvy.

Why would they mind? It's not like we're bringing stun guns into the establishment! Though, that might be fun as well.

Maybe we should also bring crazy glue. Cause will hot glue work on glass and a metal like substance? But, if we're using crazy glue don't forget to bring the fingernail polish remover. I have definitely glued myself to myself more times than I'd care to admit too!

If you guys are buying supplies to make pimp cups, would it be too much trouble to ask you to pick up some for me and I'll give you money?

I don't even know what a pimp cup is, but I feel like I'm missing out on something huge.

Ok, who wants in on the pimp cup supplies? Either Steph or I will do a supply run and you can just pay us back. We'll be sure it's cheap.

Boys, this is a perfect project for you too!

10/17/2006 Stephanie "H.A.L.T." P. says:

Well, I was just thinking they might not want us bringing in hot glue guns because of the electrical cords and hot glue mess factor.  Superglue would probably work too... although I will definitely be BeDazzling myself on accident if I use that stuff!

I was going to try to go to the dollah store tonight after work, so let me know if you want me to pick you up a goblet and what color!  Hopefully they'll have some that will work for pimp cup purposes.

I've got a pimpable goblet, but could I buy some jewels and bedazzling supplies (adhesive stuff) from someone??  Where does one get this kind of stuff?  Is there a secret bedazzling store I'm unaware of??

Lydia, I'm going to make a supply run tonight, so if you want to kick in a few bucks in exchange for access to my HUGE BAG OF RHINESTONES and crazy glue, that's cool.  

If there IS a BeDazzling store, we will find it and review it.  I promise you.

That is very cool, though, personally, I try not to mix math with crafts.
