Student showcase: metal embossed hearts at St Mary Park

ByCrafts for Wellbeing

I had a fantastic evening with St Mary’s Belles WI at St Mary Park yesterday. We had a large group of over 20 and I showed them all how to make their own individual metal embossed heart decoration. There was lots of experimentation and playing going on and everyone made beautiful hearts as you can see from the photos above. Unfortunately with it being so busy I didn’t manage to get round and take a photo of everyone’s piece, but you can get an idea of all the creativity going on!

Thanks so much to everyone at St Mary’s Belles WI for looking after me so well, I had a great evening with you all!
