Adelaide Brown Owls - Jersey Wrap Up

Pardon the bad pun in the title there, but here's a few happy snaps of the jersey scarves that we very excitedly made last meet. Just look at our happy little cherubs! This craft was one of the most popular, achieveable and rewarding sessions we've done in a long time.

Big thankyou to Mel who showed us how simple yet effective making your own jersey scarves from t-shirts really is.

Adelaide Brown Owls - BYO

As we head into Autumn and Winter, it's a great time to work on those little projects that are sitting in your Work In Progress box or basket. Why not bring one along and finish it off?

Otherwise, bring along whatever crafty little number you are working on at the moment.
That might be crochet, knitting, embroidery, tatting (!), macrame (!!) or granny faces made out of old dried apples....... hmm, maybe not that last one.

Or if you are completely stuck for something to do, we still have some felting kits in the cupboard along with other bits and bobs that we can dig out.


Next meeting: 27th April
Same place: Box Factory, Regent St, Sth Adelaide
Same time: 7pm til 9:30pm

Origami Brown Owls Adelaide Style!

Our Origami instructor - Chieko

Our gorgeous Brown Owl member Chieko was here visiting from Japan and on her last night with us showed us how to craft ourselves a beautiful flower and small box using origami.

Like how innovative we Brown Owls are? Using beer bottle tops for glue holders is a great idea!

Origami Leap Frog - Brown Owls

And to finish off the night, we folded ourselves some super cute frogs and had an impromptu session of "My Frog Can Jump Further Than Your Frog".
