It was Jennifer's birthday during the week so Marilyn did the honours and brought in a cake. Jennifer had taken a well deserved break in Israel to celebrate.

A couple of years ago the Craft Group got together to decoupage a huge canvas frame approximately 48'' x 30''. It took a number of weeks to complete ( actually there is a small section that was never finished if you look close enough ).

I thought it would be a good idea to put it up here as it was done Pre Website days and a lot of new members would not have seen it.

It's been in my attic for some time. If anybody would like to have it please get in touch with me.

A couple of pics of it below.

THE CRAFT TABLE

Well it was back to some glass painting today. Out came a number of coffee jars that we had been saving. These ones have flat sides, much easier to work with.

Everyone learned how to use the lead outliner cone ( Before anyone gets worried it's not real lead and very safe ). It's quite a difficult procedure but most everyone seemed to get the hang of it. The more you practice the better the outcome.

And this is the result of today's work.

THE POETRY GROUP

I had to sit a listen for a while before I took these photographs. It was a beautiful poem........

I have been promised some poetry written by members of the group so hopefully we will have a couple of brand new poems on the POETRY & PROSE page.

THE JEWELLERY GROUP

Good old Marilyn.....she does keep this group on their toes.

So this is what they have been up to....I want those earrings please!!!!

THE WATERCOLOUR TABLE

These guys are getting good...... Week after week Jennifer passes on her skills as a watercolour artist and the results speak for themselves.

UkCan...The ' Brand New ' UKULELE GROUP.

A brand new Ukulele Class started at TOG this week led by Lisa.

Lots of people wanted to have a go at playing this lovely little stringed instrument.

Let's hope we find some budding musicians.

And of course at the end the day it wouldn't be complete without Angie's Dance and Exercise.

Hope everyone enjoyed the afternoon. We certainly had plenty to keep us busy.

Hope to see you folks in Watford next Friday 5th Febuary for ' Munch & Mingle. '.

Look at the NEWS page for more details.
