I can't believe over a week has passed since the most awesome weekend ever - the Craft Camp! It was a long countdown for all of us since we signed up months in advance. I remember waking up really early when registration started (it was posted at 6am!) just to be sure that I get a slot. I haven't done anything crafty in a long time since most of my work is computer based! I also felt that I needed to go out and meet new people since I spend most of my time at cooped up at home. :D
We left the city at around 5 am and arrived a little past 9. I was surprised at how lovely the place was! It was definitely conducive to a weekend of crafting - save for the
wonderful background sound of people singing Skyline Pigeon and Laklak on the karaoke :D Anyway, here are some of the highlights of the event.
Very true!
We made paint palette cases out of baked sculpey clay
and watercolor using gum arabic, honey and natural dyes
That's my flying cat on the Gocco machine :D
Making tea! Lots of herbs and leaves to choose from.
Wire rings. I'm the one with the green nails :D
photo of me with my tribe, handmade journal I decorated with washi tape and wire ring
Pompoms! Overall it was an awesome event. It was fun to craft by the beach and also meet several like minded people :)
I miss you, Zambales! Hope to see you soon :)
