Craft Demo Weekend

Staff Fern Gully Stamps

We had another wonderful Craft Demo Weekend on the 27th-29th March. With 5 Craft workstations everyone was sure to learn something new. That’s what these Weekends are all about. A Great day out where you can get together with friends for something a little different, have some time to relax and enjoy yourself in a warm and creative environment. Have the chance to win some fantastic prizes and everyone takes home a show bag with lots of goodies (this time we had over $30-$35 worth) including a great Magazine called Simply Cards that has some great ideas and free papers inside.

We run these Demo Weekends (that are actually more  Hands_on  than Demonstrations ) 2 times a year. If you are interested in being informed of the next Demo Weekend please send us an email ferngully@iprimus.com.au
