No Worries!

For anyone who does not consider themselves very crafty, don’t worry! I’m the least crafty sister, but I’m excited to try and learn new things. This is really a passion for both Portia and Athena (anyone who has seen or been on the receiving end of either of my sister’s “projects” would know what I’m talkin’ about). So, even if you don’t share the same crafting passion as these two “Martha Stewarts,” come join our club and have some fun!

P.S. Colleen, I heard you thought my owl painting was the best!

Let'ssss get it started!

Singing like Fergie, "Let's get it started." I am so excited that we are finally getting it together. This is going to be fun. Let brainstorm and come up with a new name. Bring your ideas to our first meeting. Way to get the ball rolling Portia! I can't wait to see you all there.

Your new crafting buddy,
Athena

Welcome to RCC

Do you get the R?  It is a play on Our and R for Roswell the common thread that will tie us all together.  We have all lived, worked, played, or gone to school here.  Athena thinks that we can do better, maybe we can.  We have to start somewhere, so this is R beginning. 

We are getting exciting and have been working behind the scenes for R first meeting.  We have all talked about it enough between chats and facebooks posts, so here we go.

Our first meeting will be on Saturday, 7/9/11 at 7:00 at Portia's house.  Please email for directions. 

We will have a very special guest for our first meeting.  Lindsay Pearlman of Ella Hayes Jewelry will be joining us and guiding us with her knowledge and supplies as we make a unique jewelry piece each to take home.  http://www.ellahayes.com/  Her website will show you some of her awesome designs.  Mom, Athena, Katie, and I had the pleasure of making some pieces with her a few months ago and had so much fun.  The materials and expertise cost for this first meeting will be $20.  We do not expect our future crafts to cost this much, but thought that Lindsay would be a nice splurge for our first meeting.

Please bring yourself, and your creativity.  We look forward to seeing you.  An RSVP by Thursday, 7/7 is appreciated.

Best,
Portia

PS - Have a crafty website you love, or idea for R next RCC meeting? If so email us or post it to our craft club.  Like normal ladies clubs (book clubs, tennis clubs, etc.) we will schedule the detials of our next event before we close R evening on the 9th.
