Our Latest Scrapbooking Workshops

It's been a long time since we've made a post! The end of 2009 was a little rough for us, so we didn't have much time to post... but in 2010 we've been back on our feet and have been scrapping frenziedly and joyfully once more :) It truly is a form of therapy!
What we have particularly enjoyed is conducting classes for people. Up to date, we have done about 3-4 classes for Mark's colleagues at Ngee Ann. I did one at HPPS for Staff Wellbeing Day, and since then we've had the opportunity to conduct a class for teachers of another secondary school, also part of their Staff Welfare programme. I also conducted a small class at home for two girls, and this Saturday will mark the first official class we will have at home!
Teaching scrapbooking, for us, is more than imparting the skills necessary to create a photo book or a page. It has really been about building up self confidence and giving people a chance for a little self-care and self-reflection, which is honestly so rare these days. It really is a therapeutic time where people can come together and share the memories and the loved ones who matter most to them, to take time to appreciate and affirm, but also to rest and rejuvenate their weary minds and souls. It is a joy to see how please someone is with their completed work of art! We are definitely looking forward to more scrapping classes to come this year.
