She's Crafty

July 25, 2007

Stop fighting and start knitting. Or crocheting. Or sewing. Crafts are back on the scene these days, and they're totally the hippest (not so) new way to find enlightenment. At least, that's the idea at Fancy Tiger, where craft store meets apparel boutique meets a classroom. Broken purse strap? Pants too long? Well, here, they'll tell you to DIY (Do It Yourself). Okay, so we know it sounds a little harsh, but the idea is to teach people how to make or alter their own clothes. And what could be better than saving that twenty dollars you would have spent at the tailor, and buying another pair of jeans, or a new clutch, or maybe even another pair of strappy sandals?

From yarn and patterns to books and knitting needles, Fancy Tiger has all the supplies you'll need to become an all around craft nut. And, with over a dozen classes offered at the store, you'll know how to crochet, felt, bind books, and even make your own lace, before you can say, "embroidery". When it comes to apparel, picture Cheap Monday jeans, Heavy Rotation t-shirts, and all kinds of screen-printed goodies. Whether you're looking to become the next Martha Stewart, or just for a sweet new tee, you'll be glad you found yourself at this extraordinary Denver boutique.
