Arty crafty types?
Hi all,
I've been hearing so many of you mention that you love art, or craft, or photography. In one of my (many!) past lives I studied Fine Art, so it's a not-so-secret passion of mine, too!
Anyway, I thought it would be a good idea if we set up an arty/crafty types group for everyone to share inspiration and ideas, successes... No need to be an expert, or for anything more than an interest in sharing.
What do you think? Anyone interested?
Let me know by PM or in comments.

Good Luck with getting your aproval.
I LOVE Mansfield and areas (lived at Sawmill settlement one season).
I worked at Mt. ller as a Lifty for 6 years (and met my husband there - aa Aussie ski and snowboard instructor).
Used to do all our shopping in Mansfield and our evenings out - movies, pub dinners etc.
TRULY LOVELY area.
Good Luck with your event...

Hi all,
just to let you know, I've made the Creative Corner group posts private for now just so we don't annoy the rest of the network with our chatter while we get ourselves organised. So you'll need to join to see the posts and contribute.
Here's the link again in case you missed it: http://www.bcna.org.au/group/30653
Anyone can still join, though -- they just won't see posts unless they join (hope that makes sense).

Okay, all -- I've set up the group, so please come and join. It's here:

If anyone has a recent creative 'thing' they'd like to supply for us to use as our first group image, let me know and I can upload it.
I'll set up a flickr account for us to use asap, but in the meanwhile, if you want to add a pic, just add it from wherever you currently upload your pics.

Fabulous idea for an art group. I have taken up knitting again. I havent made anything for years - since my kids stopped school really. Now I have an inherited box or two of wool from my mum and have decided to make all her grandchildren blankets to remember their Oma by.
Also decided to start putting together the photo albums - 30 years of photos to do. Not sure how I will do it, but open to suggestions.
I figure two projects will take me a while, but I am keen too learn more.
Take care and happy craftying everyone.

Well our group has a date for our pink day. i have finally cinvinced them to keep it as a mini field of women some wanted it as just a cancer remembrance but others that have attended my mini fields were dissapointed that some didnt want pink ladies. SOOOOOOOOOOOOO we win . gee i am good ha ha ha .
the local CWA is having a pink morning tea, and my son and fiancee are playing music banjo and fiddle and guitars they are in an old time band (bluegrass) so will let you know more later, and if anyone near by you are welcome to turn up. sorting out council etc at the moment.wish me luck
mansfield shire is probably one of the worst when it comes to allowing permits to put the ladies in the ground depends who you are and who's pockets are lined. wish me luck Marita??????
