Our own WI member, Sophie hosted an evening of name badge making for our members to wear at every meeting. With their craft kits at the ready, members were shown a selection of felt or fabric and paper made badges and were asked to come up with something in their own style or theme. Like kids in a sweet shop, the members were treated to a selection of materials to choose from, (donated by members and The Needlecraft Shop in Beccles). Some beautiful badges were made - we look forward to sharing them at the next meeting.

Our first event meeting was hosted by our very own WI member Tracy, teaching us all how to make paper beads. Starting with a few basic supplies (paper, pva glue and a matchstick) she took us through the simple rolling technique to make our beads. Using different colours, patterned and width papers resulted in a varied selection of beads. After essential glue drying time (half time tea and cake!) we were given leather cord and a clasp to create a piece of jewellery to take home. A very enjoyable craft evening with a keepsake to take home. Thank you Tracy! |
