Update on card demonstration earlier today

I got to the venue about 10 minutes early and got some very strange looks from some of the people what had gathered outside. Bernie had dropped me off before setting off to a scrap-yard to look for yet more bits for the car and he asked if I was going to be okay. I waited outside until my mum came and I went in with her. I was greeted with a cup of tea and the ice began to melt a bit. Everyone finally arrived about 2.10pm and the gentleman that runs the club went through the normal business of birthdays., announcements etc etc etc. Then he came towards me with his microphone in his hand and introduced me to everyone. I was terrified LOLOLOL. I set myself up at one of the tables and began to show them how to do the kits that I had taken along then asked if anyone would like to join in. I was really surprised at the amount of people that said yes. 17 out of 27 people joined in and it turned into a really nice afternoon. I handed out the kits I had prepared and went round each table giving a quick demo on how to put them together and they dived in. Every body made one card and they were all over the moon and have asked if I can come back again at some stage and do something else with them. I even had the gentlemen crafting and they too enjoyed it. I didn't have the heart to charge them £3 each kit as they were sharing mostly so I just asked them for £1 each so came away with £17 and a bunch of elderly people have all gone home very happy this afternoon. I really enjoyed it after getting over my initial nerves. xx

  3. What a great idea and I would have done the same about charging, why do we do that?

    Hope you have kept up with that and are now famous in your area.

    Keep up with it all, best wishes
