Overview

If one man's trash is another man's treasure, then a trunk full of junk may as well be a treasure chest. Suitcase Rummage gets that when it comes to shopping, second-hand reaps the best bang for your buck. For years they've been hosting regular events at Brisbane Square, but now they're upgrading and upsizing to the Powerhouse and adding a craft workshop to the mix.

The Suitcase Rummage and Crafternoon takes place from 11am to 4pm, and will feature a crowd of open suitcases filled with the type of clothes, knick-knacks and craft you probably don't need but definitely deserve. Plus, join Emily Lush for a workshop on Woven Wallhangings, where you'll learn the basics of tapestry weaving (even how to make your own lap loom from upcycled materials).

You can have your own shot at weaving something beautiful, and if you really know how to take advantage of a situation, pop it in an open suitcase and smack a $20 pricetag on it.

Entry for Suitcase Rummage and Crafternoon is free, and if you're interested in running a stall, register here.
