This weekend in San Mateo,  the world’s largest DIY fair celebrates it’s 4th anniversary.  Make Magazine‘s Maker Faire is expected to draw a crowd of over 100,000 to the San Mateo County Expo Center. Thousands of DIY vendors will showcase everything from robots to furniture to food. Arts, crafts, science, technology, engineering- and FASHION. Not only will every self-respecting small designer in the Bay Area be hawking their wares, but there will also a fashion show Saturday evening and other fashion-focused events, clothing swaps, and how-to classes both days. Tickets are $25.

(Hey, look, it’s Nightshade again!)
