I can't believe we only have 3 weeks left until we break for the Christmas period and this week is the last demonstration/techniques week with the next 2 being "catch up" sessions.
We are side stepping the paper craft world for this week and creating a variety of beautiful fabric flowers ready to use on any of your crafty projects including, decorating....cards, hats, scarves, jumpers, gift packaging, handbags, cushions, 3D home decor projects and the list just keeps going!
I have loads of fabrics here for you to use but there are a few things you could bring if you have them which will help with speeding up your work:
- Hot met glue gun and glue sticks ...I have a couple of glue guns and some glue sticks but they are a bit hit and miss!! I have loads of glue sticks for the large one but the trigger spring has gone and no sticks for the smaller ones but I have cut some of larger sticks down. You may also want to bring your sticky dots.
- You can bring some unwanted old jewellery but I do have a box with loads of stuff in and loads of beads.
- You may want to bring some ribbon scraps and feathers, pearls etc
- we will be doing some sewing but I have loads of needles and cotton just need to remember your reading glasses if you use them!!
- If you have any crochet cotton that you don't use you may want to bring that as I will be making a flower with that type of yarn, but I do have loads of wool.
- Bring a plastic container to put all you flowers in and perhaps a bag for the petals you don't use so you can easily find them when you need them.
- Fimo or Sculpy or other make polymer clay if you have it ... for use with molds to create centre pieces for the flowers
This will be a fun session of flower making...but if you want to carry on with your paper crafts you are welcome to do your own thing.
More samples are on their way so check back soon.
Looking forward to seeing you soon
