In 2012 I started going to a local craft group on Tuesday Mornings in the Village I live. A few years ago before Bianca and Juliet's births I was invited to teach a class or two at this group but now I was desperate for some inspiration. These craft mornings are arranged by Sure Start and the Community Centre for mothers in the area with young children to encourage them to try these things with their kids at home. The girls get to go to a creche with other kids and I get to spend time with other crafty mums.
We have made Driftwood mirrors, (mine was a disaster as the glue they provided was watered down PVA with not much holding power), decorated fabric bags, glass painting, photo frames, wreaths and a few other items.
Most of the base products used came from a UK based company called Baker Ross that mostly cater for children's craft, fundraising products and educational goodies.
