The September workshop proved very different from the usual. I provided various items from my seemingly unending collection of "too good to miss out on a bargain" accumulated stuff. Wooden frames, Bisque, Plaster, Paper Mache boxes of all shapes and sizes. Supplies available for everyone to paint and decorate as each person decided. A sample of one of the boxes was provided as a guide but everyone had a go and although I did not take photographs of all the finished items, here are a few, starting with my sample box.

Fabulous day I wish I had taken more photographs of all the finished items. We ended the day making paper beads and went on to make stretch bracelets and earings for many of those remaining in the afternoon. Here are a few pics of the finished beads, plus many more I managed to make while on holiday, a bit addictive I must say, but now I have to find a use for them.
