DIY Creative Workshop 1st June
Join us to create your own Laser Cut Sign for your home or for a special gift. Great Mothers' Day present!
The MDF will be pre-cut ready for you to paint and add your chosen quote using a pre-designed stencil.
Shapes to choose from: Dog, Bone, Heart or Tag
You can add a hook to the dog sign to hang a dog lead or collar afterwards.
Quotes to choose from for:
DOG & BONE SIGNS: Choose a design from the 'DOG' design gallery (You can also have a dog silhouette added from 'Dog' album)
HEART SIGNS: (You will make 2)
Choose 2 designs from the design galleries (except from Personalised Family Signs & Family Tree) that will fit the shape of your heart. Check with me if you're not sure.
TAG SIGNS:
Choose a design from the design gallery (except from Personalised Family Signs & Family Tree) that will fit the shape of your sign. OR you can make it into a 'To Do' chalkboard.
All materials are supplied, just wear old clothes or bring an apron. Tea, coffee and nibbles will be supplied, but if you feel like you may need a wine to get your creative juices flowing, then feel free to BYOB.
When you arrive at the workshop, you will choose your paint colours, so please make sure you are on time, so you get your piece completed on time.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
