Sometimes we get caught up in the Christmas rush, and don’t take time to think about people who may be experiencing a much quieter holiday season.

Just throwing ideas around at this stage but if the chance came up, would anyone be interested in craft sessions next year, maybe monthly or maybe a one off event and see how it goes.
Costs would be $5-10 a session (not for profit, would just cover the costs), and would give you the materials needed to make two projects to take home. Plus hopefully tea and biscuits and a good natter with other creative minded people. :) would be open to all adults and late-teens and would be held most likely on a weekday morning somewhere in Hornby. It's very much just an idea at this stage but I really would love to hear from anyone who'd be into that sort of thing. If it goes ahead I'll post examples of what we would make ahead of time so you know exactly what you're in for :)
