If you are a craft enthusiast and you've never heard of , then it is my absolute pleasure to introduce you. This is the expo you have been wishing and hoping for; the place where you will find anything and everything you need to make your wildest crafting ambitions become a reality.



The expo is a 3-day showcase of the latest in craft trends and supplies, Do-it-Yourself products, hand finished products and even homewares. The expo is dedicated to everything from stamping to scrapbooking, patchwork, jewellery, needlework, embellishing and much, much more. Each show has between 60 to 100 exhibitors and also includes plenty of hands-on opportunities. Participate in a workshop, make and take, or watch a demonstration.

Some of the featured exhibitors include Aroma Pendants, Designer Stitches, Little MG, Mulberry Lane Quilting and Crafts, Papercraft Heaven, Snazzi Scrappin' and Brindabella Quilting Systems, to mention only a select few. There's heaps more exhibitors offering everything from pens to emu oil, book binding, bear making kits, leather restoration, to pain relief for sore hands!



The expo travels around Australia, appearing in QLD, SA and NSW as well as several regional Victorian locations throughout the year. In Victoria you can visit the Expo at:%% (Please note: Some of the exhibitions have already passed).
