Craftacular

Ah the ladies of BUST magazine have gone out of their way to make Brooklyn safe for crafters. Getting past the name, Craftacular, isn't easy. But once swallowed and spit back, the Dec. 17 craftfest at Warsaw in Williamsburg (you knew it was going to be in Williamsburg, didn't you?) from noon to midnight does sound like a good stop for last-minute gifts. Between holiday parties and having to wake up at 7am every day this week (don't ask), I'm not feeling very creative, so here's what BUST has to say about its own party. I've taken the liberty of bolding the important parts.

"... featuring crowds of crafters, cocktails, DJs, and dancing! Celebrity crafters/authors Brini Maxwell, Vickie Howell, Jenny Hart, and more will be on hand to sign copies of their books! Get jiggy with "Jingle Bells" and a gin and tonic as you browse through hundreds of one-of-a-kind gifts handmade by over 80 inventive and insanely talented crafters from across the country. Check out performances by New York's Dazzle Dancers and hit the dance floor while enjoying music spun by Basement Bangra star DJ Rekha, DJ Shakey, Dirty Jean, Peppermintwist, Jaime Kozyra and others.
