Create With Kate Winter Christmas Party

Hi everyone. I've just found a way to blog from my phone. I know you'll all say"any one can do that" but now I can do that so that's why it's so cool! I just need to figure out if I can add photos straight from the phone? Felicia and I are very busy at the moment getting the decorating for next week's party in the Hudson bay hotel sorted for kate's Christmas party next Sunday. Be sure to book your place so you'll be guaranteed a goodie bag. I tried my hand at silk painting on Friday and I have to say I am hooked. I can't wait to try it at home once I talk hubbie into building a few frames for us. I'll try to take a photo of my scarf now. We'll see how that turns out.

mini album with Felicia Thomas Sat 16th November

Felicia Thomas will be teaching at Whitechurch National School, Dungarvan Co Waterford. The workshop will take place next Saturday 16th from 10.00 until 4.00, tea coffee and buns will be served all day but bring a sandwich with you. We will have a full shop with everything crafty you need and lots more.
We will have lots of room around the tables for anyone who wants to just come along and craft and not actually do the class. The class will cost 30 euro and that covers all of the materials, for anyone who just wants to craft there is no fee.
Looking forward to hearing from you,

Update on what's happening in Ballinameela.

Photo: christmas cards created by the 2 Mary's......Mary Christmas...ho ho ho!  Photo: a little sculptural effort called "bottling Bohemia" 

Yipee we have internet again. These are just some of the bits n pieces we are creating in Ballinameela Art Club. We meet every Wednesday night and we compare creations and discuss new projects and outings e.g. the knitting and stitching show. Some of us went to the RDS yesterday to see what was on offer; lots of fabric, ribbon, craft supplies, craft tools, papers, wool and so much more. A great day out and we even had sat nav,,, and it worked! For anyone who hasn't been you should try to get to the knitting and stitching show next year in the RDS from Thursday to Sunday.
The next day out is November 16th when Felicia will be teaching a workshop on a journal for 2014. It will be in Whitechurch National School, Dungarvan, Co. Waterford, from 10.00 until 4.00. For any enquiries ring me on 085.2801937 or email me mididepaor@hotmail.com

Hello everyone, I have no phone at the minute so I can't add my photos. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to. We had a brilliant day last Saturday with Felicia Thomas. We did a haunted house. It's brilliant. I want to try one of the houses but do it in a Christmas, Santy house theme or maybe a wedding house theme. anyway i'll think about it and see what i'll do.
I'm really looking forward to the weekend. Create with Kate is holding a CHA release party with lots of classes and makes'n'takes. all weekend in Athlone. Hope to see you all there, Midi.

Hi everyone it has been busy for crafting in Waterford with the last month and it's not stopping.
Karen Mathews will be teaching a beginners art journaling class on Saturday 15th, I'm really looking forward to it because I haven't done any so I'm a complete beginner.
The parents assoc. in the National School where we do the classes are organising a book sale for the weekend of the 27th and 28th of September. There are some lovely books and some very unusual books.
On September 28th Felicia Thomas will be doing a haunted house class.

We will have extra space to craft for anyone who wants to come for the chat but not do the class. come along, drink tea, shop if you like, we'll have a full craft shop here on the day. We'll have all the tools you need for all the classes but bring along your own bits n bobs so you're not waiting in a queue for someone else to finish.

The 4th and 5th of September will be a brilliant weekend in Athlone; Kate of 'Create with Kate is organising a weekend in the Hudson Bay Hotel. Lots of classes and lots more shopping. A crafting space if you don't want to do any class, bring your own project to work on. I was at her last weekend on the 8th of September and I got very little of my project finished because we spent the entire time talking, and looking at what everyone else was doing. http://createwithkate.wordpress.com/author/createwithkate/


Lots more news to follow, Felicia has other classes booked with us, Betty Cummiskey will be coming down to do a flower arranging class, you'll be doing the project and bringing it home with you, not just sitting looking, a wonderful class with Patricia O'Leary, Wednesday nights we have art club, ome along, drink tea and paint. Join Lyn's class from 7.30 to 9.30 and bring home some beautiful and useful papercrafts. I'll be filling in more details so check in as the weeks go on to see what else we're up to.
