Description
Craft Friday is a crafting event for everyone. No previous experience is necessary as we will have experts on hand to help and materials that you can use.
Each month we will have some seasonal items you can join us in making, we have previously made hot water bottle covers and macramé plant hangers. You are also welcome to use the time to work on your own project.
The theme for May is destress. We will be making fidget buddies by adding ears, eyes, tails and more to stress ball style bodies. We also have the option to make some mini bunting which you can use to decorate your workspace. The exam period can be difficult and it is important to take some time out for yourself, so why not come along?
You are welcome to come for the whole session or just drop in for some of it. We will have light refreshments for you to enjoy.
