We Wish You A Merry Craftmas

Late December, 2009: the libraries of South Staffordshire rang with the sounds of chattering children and snapping crackers as we, the Big Art People, ran our 5th lot of craft sessions.
We worked with loads of kids (and the odd parent), in Wombourne, Perton, Brewood, Codsall, Penkridge, and Cheslyn Hay.

The children all made wintery scenes on paper plates, shiny crowns, and customized crackers (complete with joke). Truly the spirit of Christmas was in the air, and it was a lovely end to a rather hectic year.


We have just one set of craft sessions to go, during February half term. What the theme is we do not yet know, but rest assured the crafts will be as crafty as ever.

In other news, Perton library has received some funding for us to do a pebble mosaic in their courtyard, in conjunction with the local community...so that's exciting!
