2011 Christmas Craft Workshop and Fellowship


I get extremely giddy with excitement when I hear of opportunities to attend a craft workshop. On December 03, my church hosted a fabulous ladies crafting event. The only downfall was that the 2 hours allotted for the event stretched to 4 hours and then some-which was perfectly fine. Next workshop, we will be sure to reserve the full day for creative junkies such as myself.
It was a nice intimate afternoon affair with amazing and loving lad
ies who had so many creative ideas and encouragement to offer.

The worst part was that I received my Canon Rebel T3 camera on time and was so elated to capture these beautiful moments that when I retrieved it form its bag, turned it on and snapped away...the display read, card not inserted or something to that effect. I left
my SD memory card in my laptop which was at home. Bah humbug!!!! Nonetheless, I've beendependent on my iPhone for the past 5 months since I've seemed to misplace my, not one but two camera chargers. So these photos were what I took.

When you embellish regular candles they can be beautiful gifts. I made these candles for my mom and Ms. Jan.

This is the station I was responsible for-ornament and card making. The ladies loved making cards and managed to make several for family and friends.

I made a gift set for Ms. Jan who was not able to join us as she worked hard to prepare the scenes of Bethlehem Live. The set included a journal book with pieces of old hymn pages, tree ornaments, a candle and a set of Christmas cards.

The card set made by one of the ladies. So beautiful.

My mom discovered her love for making handmade cards. She made about 7 cards in 4 hours...not bad mom:)

Paper ornaments, so simple but yet so elegant on a tree.

I am not sure if I could bring myself to buy ornaments ever again.

This is one of my favorite ornaments I made.

Another pretty card set.
