What a fantastic evening.
For our February meeting we invited Natalie Simpson from Bee Crafty Ceramics to come along. Natalie brought with her a selection of ceramics for us to decorate. It was great fun getting creative with paint & it was also very therapeutic. We couldn’t believe how quickly the time passed & I forgot to take photos because we were all enjoying ourselves so much. Natalie has taken our ceramics away to be glazed & we can’t wait to see the finished results.
Our competitions this month were - make a candle & fruity jam.
It was lovely to see the first signs of Spring when Fiona took in snowdrops from her garden for our flower of the month.
