Kusudama flowers

Please bring with you, in addition to your mug:

Glue - either: narrow double sided tape and scissors 

            Or: Pritt Stick and ten or twelve paper clips for each flower

 Paper to make your flowers - For example: good quality wrapping paper, glossy magazine paper. Thick paper will make your flower harder to make!

To make one flower you need five squares, all the same size, in matching or contrasting colours. (Around 4 or 5 inches square). Bring your squares ready cut, or you can cut them on the day.

Beads or buttons to put in the centre of your flowers

There will be spares of everything if you arrive without!

Emails!

 A message for all Brixham WI members! Did you receive an email yesterday from us? If not, please check in your spam or junk mail!

The Lost Gardens of Heligan - our visit

Thank you, Tina, for the photos.

Having a smashing visit today to Heligan Gardens. Thanks to Barbara and Ann P for organising such a lovely trip.

 

Activities today!

 Just back from a refreshing swim at the Admiral Pool! There were two of us there, so it felt as if we owned the place!

Have a gorgeous day at the Lost Gardens of Heligan today on the Brixham WI trip! You will be driving up to leave your cars at the Cricket Club right now! Enjoy!

Our Institute meeting today!

 

Our speaker gave us a fabulous insight into the life and paintings of Beryl Cooke. Such detail, such emotion and such a sense of humour! A great afternoon!

With our new start time of 2 o’clock, we were able to look at all of the activities and events on offer, as well as spend some social, catching up time, too. It was good to meet some of our new members as well as a couple of guests!
