March Creative Fun Day Recap



After a very quiet Creative Fun Day in February, March was filled with activity and creative conversation and lots of different cakes in mugs!

I will start with the projects.

Ginny made wrappers and labels for her homemade soap which she sells at her Etsy shop at this link All Nature Sings

I worked on a project making Easter grass paper by heating and ironing plastic Easter grass.  It can be punched with a decorative punch for embellishing items in a unique way.
Laura started a project in which she is turning a bottle into a chalkboard.  This was step one - paint the bottle.
Andrew drew some pictures, but I didn't get to take any pictures of those before he left and Jessi was working on her Expo project and that has to remain a secret project until the Expo on April 17.

Now for the mug cakes!

Andrew was our first "cook" and he made a chocolate mug cake.

Rachel made a s'more's mug cake, but she ate hers before we had a chance to take a picture of it.  (I didn't get a picture of mine either.)

Annika stopped by and made a chocolate mug cake with marshmellows which she took home and shared with her father.


 Laura and Jessi both made peanut butter and chocolate mug cakes.  Here is Laura's:
 and here is Jessi's:

 It was a very enjoyable day.  I hope you can join us next month for some creative fun on April 20!

March Creative Fun Day

It has been a busy few weeks, but that just makes taking time out for creativity more important.
 
This month's  
CREATIVE FUN DAY 
will be this 
Saturday, March 16 from 12:30-5:30. 
 Come and work on a project for school, a project for fun or any project that you want to work on.  For this month's treat we will have the ingredients for a variety of microwave cakes in a mug available for you to create and experiment with.  You may want to bring your own big mug to use.  Let me know if you have any favorite flavors that you might want to try.  I have made a few of these already and they work out quite well!  Yum
 
Hope to see you Saturday!
