Bedale: POSCH - Crafting Self Care 12th Feb

 
We are joined by Andrea from @ArnieCreations for some crafting self-care - we're celebrating Valentine's Day with a twist as this will be all about YOU! As we begin to see Spring on the horizon, it's a good time to pay attention to our own needs, do a bit of a re-set, and create some loving intentions for ourselves.

This session will combine Andrea's popular Vision Board workshop with Valentine's Day - you will come away with something in your hand that contains a positive loving message for yourself.

If you received a gift for yourself with some pretty wrapping paper that you loved - and you want to re-cycle it into something lovely, feel free to bring that along as this mini-project lends itself nicely to re-using lovely scraps of paper.
