We've just returned home after this mornings brilliant collage workshop with 14 Junior Make Spacers. We had a fab time, surrounded by all sorts of lovely materials, buttons, beads, beach finds, papers and paints.
It was great to be up in the Herbie room again, especially on such a lovely sunny day. It really feels like you are sitting amidst the tops of the trees up there - beautiful and so inspiring!
All of the participants went home with one or two - and sometimes three or four collages, ready to hang on their walls. they were all so different too - from intricate drawings, to explosions of colour and 3-D materials.
Half way through the morning we stopped to look at each others' work and enjoy a drink and a cupcake - quickly becoming the "Make Space for a Cupcake" moment of each workshop!
I particularly enjoyed the queue of things to be stuck using the glue gun - (a job just for the adult helper) even though I managed to burn myself more than once in the process! They were all so inventive.
We hope you all enjoyed yourselves as much as we did and have a happy memory of your morning spent creating when you look at the collage on your wall. thanks for being with us and don't forget to keep an eye out on this blog for details of our next events.
