Made a small banner/artworx for the event |'3 ......coz like.... artist n shizzle.... kinda what I do~ X'S
SPECS FOR THE MEET-THING ARE AS FOLLOWS
RETAILER CONTACTED: ..And date confirmed! :'D SEE Y'ALL THAR~!! ^_____^
The Adventure
So this AMAZING joint called Bartfields, whom are an online faux-fur wholesaler, are moving shop in the rather near-future,.. and the BEST PART? (you have probably ALREADY guessed it!)
They're wanting to get rid of a WHOLE lotta that stock/scraps etc before shifting! ^____^
So I've already called them up to ask what is the best time to bring a horde down and they've advised the first days of August.
-Its still a little while away, and will be a GREAT opportunity to pick up something for that project you have always had on the back of your mind, or even the supplies to getting a tail/ears/partial or full fursuit made by someone else while it's cheap!
AND THE INFO IZ AS SUCH;
Date: 4 of August (Saturday, now, by popular demand)
Meeting point: 535 Hopetoun Gardens, Elsternwick VIC 3185
Actual Shop address is:
656-660 Glenhuntly Road, Caulfield
Victoria, Australia 3162 [Google Map]
-If you are connecting or coming through Melbourne CBD, the 57 Tram to Carnegie is the line you want, stop 48 (you will have just past the park on your right side coming from the city!)
Time: 11am-11:45 meeting time, then DESCEND upon the shop! X'3 (Any late-comers just refer to the shop address and meet us there)
You Will Need: -Some saved pennies to buy fur with, the basic-ranges of craft fur are about 14$ a meter & more fancy furs go up in price. (though I do not know exactly what kinds of extra discounts might apply @ the time!)
-Enough change to buy lunch/coffee afterwards (plus fair or transport out here :'B )
-A enviro-bag (or other form of carrying device!) might be an idea if you intend to pick something up :'D
-If you have any sketch-books for planning drafting, bring it!
Afterwards: Figured we could all hoof it down the the Hawthorn/GlenHuntly intersect to lunch&LORD over our purchases and plan/sketch/draft/design stuff for it! (I will bring loads of spare enough paper/pencils etc to do this with) ^___^
Will probably hang for as long as peeps are willing~ :'>
If you a definite for coming to this, please let me know by Sunday July 29th (either by commenting/texting me direct or via the journal-post) So I can phone in the rough-numbers attending a week beforehand :'> (the lady @ the store said to do this, MEBBE WE'LL GET SPECIAL sumthings if there are LOADs of us~! X'D )
Wanted to make this trek open-ended for any/everyone to come along to paw over, pick up or just come with and drool over all the amazing furz~! ♥ ^____^
DATE HAS NOW BEEN SHIFTED FROM THE THURSDAY TO A SATURDAY FOR THOSE THAT WORK DURING THE WEEK.
... ...... ...And I mean,.. JUST LOOK @ ALL THESE COLOURS~! >|'3
*Inked with 0.1 feltip, coloured with various markers, white pencil & gelpen.

no wuz, so atleast 2 people will be coming~! X'S lol
(hurr) was 'hopefully' joking :'S but all the initial peeps that were set to join have either pulled out, or heard nothing from, but as it stands, there is about 3-4 confirmed to come :'S
Was supposed to be busy, and shouldn't spend money, but I'll be there
Woah I very nearly missed this. Thanks for the info, I've been buying off ebay and this looks much better. I'm not sure I can meet the time frame, does it have to be the time or will this shop be open a bit later in usual business hours? I didn't even know this store existed. Awesome. Where are they moving to?
not sure just yet, Think its open til 4, but I have heard from another that you have to phone in opening on the weekend, so it may just be for our on this day (but most other weekdays, their open til 4pm)
