September 2017

Hi Everyone.....TOG spent the last 3 weeks at 'The Bridge'.....it's been a bit strange getting used to a new venue, but the staff have been fantastic....leaving us free to get on in our own sweet way.

As usual I will just get on and show some of the photographs we took this month.......ENJOY!!

Jennifer's Painting Table

......believe it was a mixture of Watercolour in week 1....Pencil Drawing in Week 2.....and Acrylics in Week 3.

 

The Craft Table

......Hansa helped to get all these crafts off the ground. It was great fun......A lot of people joined in, so be prepared we have lots of photos in this section.

Hand Printing

What about these two taking their prints to a higher level....good on you girls!!

 

Rolled Paper Art

......we made some super blackboards just like the ones in T. K. Maxx.

First job roll some straws......we made loads of them from outdated colourful magazines....No Hobbycraft ready made crafts straws here!!!!!

 

Dominoes

What do you do with an incomplete set of Dominoes?????......Make them into Fridge Magnets of course....Why didn't I think of that!!!!!!

 

Karen deep in thought here!! " What do I do next? "  and good old Hansa coming to the rescue.

We were lucky enough to find an old book of beautiful patterned papers in a charity shop.

The magnets were stunning!!!!

A closer look (click on images) reveals some of the lovely patterns that were chosen.

 

Marilyn's Jewellery Group

Sorry didn't have anything to photograph this time but hopefully next time I can show off a bunch of stuff.....Think there was a lot of chatting going on...but hey!  This is a social group too....

 

' UkeCan ' Lisa's Ukulele Group

....If you'd like to learn this instrument come along and have a go....you've got nothing to lose... Lisa will get you on your way before you know it.

Think Marilyn's really enjoying her 'New Baby' ( Ukulele.... in case anyone gets the wrong idea!!!! )

Yes!...we all managed to fit in this room......it was a bit like being at Paddington Station busy, busy, busy along with our very own buskers in the far corner of the room.....Great Fun!!!

I think our first month at The Bridge has been a very joyful experience.  We've made some new friends and hope to meet more in the weeks to come.

We are are back on Wednesday 11th of October for more 'Fun & Games'
