Teaching others to Blog and other stuff!!

Hi All!
Had a meeting with the manager of my local community house regarding making arrangements for a kids crafts holiday program I'm going to be running it with a friend Carrie (not her real name). Carrie attended the meeting also. All went well. We'll be sharing the advertising and marketing work with the manager. We'll be doing a range of crafts with the kids including beaded memory wire bracelets, beaded alien keyrings/bag adornments using pony beads and a basic beadweaving technique, a stamped and very cute little witch/Harry Potter type interactive card complete with magic words and matching bookmark and another type of bookmark ie a magnetic bookmark made with a strip of card folded down in half, two self-adhesive magnets and some stickers and punch-outs to decorate.

Asked the manager if she was interested in me showing her how to set up a blog for the community house and as a result I will be training two people on Monday how to set up a blog and get paid to do it!! Thank You Blogger.com!!

All the Best and Happy Crafting!!

Hi All!
This is a fantastic cross-stitched card a friend from my social craft group stitched to give to a friend about to go on a caravanning holiday. Talk about "flower power"!!! I love the cute little VW beetle, the caravan and the blue colours in it. What a great going away gift!!
I couldn't resist sharing it with you.
All the Best!
