Craftea

Craftea Two crafty girls met a tea girl, the three of us shared our ideas and made things together. Plans brewed quickly and before long Craftea was poured.

We do:
As the Craftea girls we aim to share our passion for making things. We find that unique things made by hand, fill our homes with soul. The time spent crafting things ourselves from scratch, slows us down and can be moment's pause in our increasingly busy lives. We look for uncomplicated ideas that show off the beauty that can be found in humble materials. We find that gathering to share ou

r hobbies with others builds quality friendships which are cemented by cups of tea. We think:
Craftea has been inspired by other 'craft cafe' type spaces and seeks to provide a venue for craft workshops that has a creative and inspiring atmosphere. We value thrifty and recycled materials. The vintage, preloved and up-cycled is enjoyed and celebrated. We encourage openness and share share our ideas, skills and materials. We love:
Stitches, fabric, paper, buttons, stamps, thread, anything old, clever ideas, simple ideas, old books, washi tape, ribbon, twine, brown paper and tea. We teach:
At Craftea workshops, we have worked out how to do it so you don't have to. We have the equipment so you don't have to buy it. We've put all the materials together in a kit so you don't have to find them all. We've set up the space so you don't have to make room and we will tidy up afterwards. You'll go home with something you've made yourself and enough materials to make another. The kettle is on and the biscuits are out so stop on by and make some thing yourself.

For those of you who have been following our page, you're probably wondering whatever happened to Craftea????

It has been over 18 months since our last workshop and we've all been busy with our own seperate projects. Paulina has still been busy running The Berry Tea Shop. Sharon is now also a small business owner with her new venture Berry Quilt & Co. - please be sure to pop in to her beautiful store (on Albert St, directly behind The Berry Tea Shop, which is handy!). And the lovely Ali has been pursuing her passion for crochet and other crafts.

We will no longer be running the usual Craftea workshops but would still like to offer fun and creative workshops at The Berry Tea Shop.

Our first workshop for the year will be a Learn to Crochet for Beginners with Ali Burgess.
-This will be a 4 week course commencing on 3rd March, 2016.
-The workshops will run from 11:30am - 1:30pm and will include a pot of tea and something sweet.
-You will learn basic crochet techniques and stitches and how to read a pattern. With a little patience and practice you will be making a granny square in no time!
-The cost of the 4-week workshop is $135 and this includes a crochet hook and some nice wool to get you started.
-Bookings can be made by calling The Berry Tea Shop on
(02) 4464 1218
-There is only a maximum of 6 per workshop so be sure to book in fast!

We were very excited to have this gorgeous group of foxy ladies in for a special Craftea (by request) on Saturday night at The Berry Tea Shop. Instead of the usual Hen's Night shenanigans, these vixens chose to spend the night doing a spot of embroidery. There was still plenty of champagne, laughs and glamour (with the little fox ears and tails). Here are a few pics from the night....

Hello all you Craftea Types. It's been a fun and busy festive season for the Craftea Three. How about you? Can you believe we are well into February already? !!

Craftea was due to start for 2014 this month but our regular 'second Friday' has been overtaken by the much more important Valentines Day and even more important.... Cliff and Paulina's VERY OWN NEW HOUSE MOVING DAY!! So there won't be a Craftea night on Feb 14! Sorry Girls!

Also, we are going to take the opportunity to extend our break a little longer while the three of us think over some format changes and new ideas we have for this year's Craftea sessions. If you have any feedback about what you love or would like to see improved about Craftea please send us a message or comment we'd be very interested in your thoughts!

As soon as we are back on deck with our refreshed plans we will post here and email to our list. Message us if you'd like to make sure you are on our email list. Happy Making!
