Needle felting classes

Irma from Kawerau

Hello,

I am gauging interest to see if anyone local would like to learn needle felting. I am an experienced fiber artist with my work sold internationally and have taught people from 12 to 60+ years old.

This is a beginner class and you will learn basic needle felting techniques and create a ball to decorate as you wish. The photos are an example I made for a previous class.

Beginners lesson is a 4-5 hour session dependent on pace of the group. $65 per person - includes all materials you will need to create the project and light refreshments.

Class size will be limited to 6 spaces.

Class date TBD based on interest but will be held on either a Saturday or Sunday.

Message me for more details or to enrol.

Worst Xmas ever?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.

Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition

Bob Owens Retirement Village

The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.

For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.

What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
