Hi everyone, my name is Kirsty, and I've got some exciting news to share about my latest adventure in the world of arts and crafts.
As you all know I'm a bit of a knitting enthusiast, and I can spend hours lost in the colourful world of arts and crafts. I decided to shake things up a bit and dive into a whole new creative world – card making!
I wanted to do something different, and I was talking to my enabler about taking part in an arts and crafts type of activity.
In the past I have been to a place called Man Shed which is somewhere that does all different types of courses. With support from my enabler, I took a short walk and found a course that would be right up my street.
I was chatting with my enabler, throwing around ideas for a fresh and funky activity, that's when I remembered, Man Shed, a place which offers all sorts of courses. So, with the support of my enabler, I took a short walk, and lo and behold, I stumbled upon a 5-week card-making course that sounded like a dream come true!
I'm going to be exploring the world of quilling, this is where you fold tiny bits of paper to create a masterpiece. Needlework card-making is on the agenda too. I've even thrown in a butterfly picture to give you a better idea!
I'm proud of myself for sticking with this course as in the past I have started something and not finished it, but not this time! I'm looking to create a whole bunch of Christmas cards for the festive season and New Year and then hopefully to some craft shows where I can sell some of my cards!
