Make your own LARP-Safe props!

The Crafters Guild has the downstairs Junior Chapel reserved from 10am until 2pm. We will start at 10am and work on our projects until we are done.Bring provisions (that is, a bag lunch).

Projects are subject to change:

    • Wednesday, July 20: alchemist bandolier
    • Wednesday, August 10: smartphone grimoire

You may bring your own project or you may choose to participate in the project led by my mom and me! If you bring your own project, it does not have to be a boffer. It does not even have to be LARP related. Just come craft with us!

My mom and I will bring our supply of tools, but you may bring your own as well if you wish to avoid waiting your turn.

    • flatblade boffer tools: hacksaw, scissors (for cutting medium density foam rubber), ruler, tape measure (sewers aka soft)
Crafters Guild Rules
    1. Be safe.
    2. Be respectful.

If you want to foamsmith a flatblade boffer, my mom and I would appreciate $10 to cover the cost of materials. Please also consider making a free-will donation to Waite Park Church ($3 to $5 per family per gathering is recommended).

To ensure we have sufficient supplies for all foamsmithers, please RSVP for the flatblade boffer by noon on Tuesday, June 14. If you are bringing your own project, an RSVP is greatly appreciated but not strictly required.

Adult supervision is not provided.

Bing your props and your character to the weekly Summertime LARP. Live Action Role Playing! Also known as Grown Up Make Believe (GUMB). You create a character, make a costume and props if you desire, and then come in character to work cooperatively with the other LARPers to create a story and an immersive fictional world within the forests of Tony Schmidt.
