Something old, something new, something borrowed or something blue, the Creative Crafts Competition celebrates time-honoured activities and their never-ending ability to please the heart and eye.
In the Milton Isbister Pavilion you’ll see over 30 individual sections including knitting, greeting cards, dolls & toys, jewellery and much more.
Hundreds of entries come in from all over Australia – and even some from overseas – as people show off their colourful, creative and crafty best. It is also a great way to share ideas and knowledge of your much loved craft
Demonstrations happen on most days of the Perth Royal Show.
To celebrate 2012 being the Year of the Farmer, the Creative Craft section has added a Scarecrow Class for EACH Craft. Please see the beginning of a Craft for the new Scarecrow Class. Great prize money is available for these Classes. These Classes will only apply for 2012. Please contact the Section Coordinator if you have any questions: Phone: 08 62633156 or ccrawford@raswa.org.au.
Put those creative hands to good use by entering your own cuddly creation which will then be donated to the kids at Princess Margaret Hospital for Children.

The toy may be crocheted, knitted, machine or handmade from fur, felt or fabric and suitable for a child from 3 years.
Please note: These exhibits will not be returned to the Exhibitor at the end of the Perth Royal Show but will be retained by the RAS to be presented to the Princess Margaret Hospital for Children on behalf of the exhibitors.
