Mad Hatters Tea Party
10th March 2012 with Jo Loggin

Inspired by Alice in Wonderland, and a love of tea and cake, we created cardboard top hats, decorated with paper cupcakes, playing cards and even rabbit ears and clock eyes.  These were donned for our tea party with tea, tarts and drawing on the table!




Sock Hobby Horses
18 February 2012 with Helaina Sharpley

Participants showed off their impressive sewing skills to transform plain old (OK, new)socks into horses, dogs and other weird and wonderful creatures fond of prancing, chatting and the occasional race!





Pom-Poms and Paper People; Big and Small
10th December 2011 with Jo Loggin

In a twist to regular Christmas type decorations, we spent a fun and hectic morning creating fabric pom-poms and paper chain people, both large and small...
Some inspired paper chains included Christmas nativity, snowmen, well dressed ladies, rabbits, ooh and even one life size!








Mexican Day of the Dead
22 October 2011 with Jo Loggin
 
To celebrate Dia de los Muertos or Mexican Day of the Dead (the English translation), we made and decorated our own traditional style masks by scrunching and sticking paper then drawing and painting our stylish designs on to our own personalised masks.









Big Draw Campaign
8th October 2011 with Jo Loggin 

As part of the Big Draw Campaign we had fun experimenting with lots of different drawing tools and techniques; before drawing our way through time and into the future with our own
Fantastic Creature time lines!
