WHAT'S ON MY WORKDESK TODAY

 Here's some of the pics from last Saturday's Beginners Craft Workshop.
You may remember my ladies were using safety pins and beads to make these lovely bracelets.
We even found time to make a pair of earrings and a little brooch.
 

 I've also been to a fabulous concert at Bury Met.
Those who read books may know the author Mark Billingham. Well he got together with the husband and wife band My Darling Clementine and together they told a story of murder and mystery. 
 On Sunday we slipped over to Leeds Town Hall for Lou Lou's Vintage Fair.
As well as a gorgeous tea party we were entertained by these dancing ladies and some wonderful music.
I picked up these wool 1960's trousers for £15.

Now back to business and thinking about what to do for my Christmas workshops.  First up though a peep at a few desks over at Julia's place.

THANKS TO ALL THOSE THAT POPPED BY LAST WEEK
HAPPY CREATING

  13. Beaded safety pins! This just goes to show you that what was big in the past shall be big again. I remember they were all the rage quite awhile ago. The safety pin business appealed to my inner punk rocker! Love your trousers! So cool and trendy again as well. Too fun! Thanks for the visit earlier. Judy #49
