Crochet Party Time – Art Night Out Party Kits

February 7, 2012 by TheCrochetCrowd

Crochet Party Kits
Art Night Out’s Crochet Party Kit

Have you ever seen this Jewelry Crochet Kit before? It’s called Art Party Kits by Art Night Out.

Art Night Out is from Maine, USA where they specialize in creating a fun night out at their studio. They have a unique mix of different genres of crafting; there seems to be something for everyone. They realized there was a need for Party Kits where people want to have all the supplies to be able to teach others.
This kit allows you to host a party where the focus is creativity. Kits range in different sizes depending on the party you have. The kit you see above is for 4 people. 

I’ve done this before where I charged my friends a fee for learning crochet jewelry with me. Using these kits, you get everything you need such as crochet hooks, beads, wire, clasps and more. I don’t feel bad about charging my friends because all of these materials cost money. My expertise and hands on instructions are worth some money as well.

Here’s what I did:
  • Bought the kit so I had everything on hand. The kits have a great selection of products inside to really make interesting jewelry that adults and kids would appreciate working on.
  • I charged a fee to attend my course in my home. The fee includes the materials and my time.
  • I worked out the course fee to be about $30. In one course, this kit can bring in about $120. Minus the kit fee and the rest is in my pocket for a rainy day!
  • I can make money on the side by hosting creativity parties such as this.
It’s a great little idea that has really neat cash earning potential. If you get some of these kits you can throw a party of your own! Make some crochet jewelry that you’ll wear forever.
