The Tale of the Travelling Mouse

Hello, lovely crafters!

I had the most delightful time at the craft market at Penistone Leisure Centre a few weeks ago. The atmosphere was buzzing with creativity, and I was thrilled to meet so many wonderful people who share a passion for handmade treasures. But the highlight of my evening was an unexpected and heart warming surprise that truly MADE MY DAY!

The Tale of the Travelling Mouse Bookmark

As I was chatting with visitors and showcasing my polymer clay creations, a lovely lady approached my stall with a big smile on her face. She excitedly showed me photos of one of my mouse bookmarks on its travels. Yes, you heard that right—my little Mouse bookmark has been on an adventure! Seeing those photos filled me with so much joy and pride. It's incredible to think that something I crafted with love has brought happiness to someone far away.

Why This Moment Was So Special

It's moments like these that remind me why I love what I do. Crafting isn't just about making beautiful items; it's about connecting with people and creating memories. Knowing that my creations are cherished and have their own stories is the best reward I could ask for.

Get Involved and Share the Joy Here are a few ways you can get involved: Inspired by this heart warming experience, I want to invite all of you to join in the fun and share your own stories.

1. Share Your Photos: Have you bought one of my creations? I'd love to see where it has travelled or how you're using it! Share your photos on social media with the hashtag #TravelsWithMyMouse and tag @gillsclaycreations. Let's create a gallery of adventures!

2. Buy your Mouse Bookmark: If you would like your very own mouse to take on your next adventure, please get in touch and I can send you one. They will be £5 which will include postage (UK only sorry!)

3. Host a Craft Party: Gather your friends and family for a fun craft party. I'll provide all the materials and guidance you need to create your own polymer clay masterpieces. It's a fantastic way to bond and unleash your creativity.

4. Join My Workshops: Keep an eye on my events page for upcoming workshops. Whether you're a seasoned crafter or a complete beginner, there's always something new to learn and enjoy.

5. Spread the Word: Tell your friends and family about Gill's Clay Creations. The more, the merrier! Let's build a community of craft enthusiasts who inspire and support each other.

   
   

Thank you to everyone who made the craft market at Penistone Leisure Centre such a memorable event. Your support and enthusiasm mean the world to me. I can't wait to see where my little mouse will travel next!
