Winter Fair Preparation

Our December 2nd meeting involved Winter Fair Preparations. We completed 5 projects that can be entered into our fair later this month! First up, a 'pipe cleaner and bead Christmas Tree ornament.' Here Mrs. Morton and Mrs. LaPorto help Nessa and a potential new member, Bridget complete her project. This is one of the projects we will invite our Winter Fair guests to do next week. Good thing we had a chance to try it out ourselves since we will be too busy hosting at our fair to get a chance to do the project then!


Next up, a Stocking Ornament, using none other than our famous "Big Shot"! Mrs. Gorbaty led this station. This is #2 of the projects we will invite other 4Hers to complete at our Winter Fair.
Then, we also used rubbers stamps, ink and cardstock to make a Winter themed card, a Hanukkah card and a Christmas card. We plan to place these in the card holder we wove at last month's meeting and enter these in the Winter Fair to be judged. On these cards we explored "backgrounds" and "focal points." Everyone's creativity was flowing by the end of the evening!
