Craft Club













Today was the inaugural Craft Club (name tbc), an afternoon of crafting and cake with friends and friends of friends, which I hope will eventually grow into a regular public event with a listing in Time Out and t-shirts and screenings and... and... But for today a small group of us played with Fimo, making tiny pendants, earrings and buttons. We went about half an hour without saying a word to each other or noticing that the CD had stopped, it took so much concentration. By 6 o'clock we were all exhausted, like when you used to go swimming as a child and would be really tired and quiet for the rest of the day - a good way to guarantee a deep sleep on a school night. We've got lots of ideas for future group crafting activities, so maybe I'll post up more pictures and maybe even a tutorial or two in the future...

Happy Sunday evening, one and all!

  7. Looks like such a fun time! Totally know the feeling when you get so into what you're doing, that you forget the music has stopped or that the TV has switched to infomercials...

  8. Hurray! I love that feeling of getting lost in a project, when you suddenly realize you're starving and you look out the window wondering how long ago it got dark outside. Your picture with all the yellow and white is so pretty!
