Creativity Is Therapy

Posted on April 3, 2020 by Barbara under Art, Craft Workshops, Felt making, Gift Vouchers

Creativity is a therapy to me during these very strange times!

Unless you spent March hiding in a cave somewhere, you will be living through the COVID-19 epidemic like the rest of us. Chances are you’ll also be one of the millions of people worldwide who are keeping calm and carrying on life under these important lock down conditions. Let’s get this over with!

I find that Creativity is a big therapy and this works for me.

So what do you do when you can’t go out for a coffee, restaurant, pub or for anything that is non-essential? Why not use the opportunity to be creative at home? Jump in a try a new craft while you have time?

Keep calm and craft

Keep calm and craft is my moto in my artisan business. Whist staying positive and busy works wonders for my mental health.

Anyway, I have so many projects to choose from to complete and start on that my mind boggles, which activity do I start first! Forging ahead I have worked on completing half finished projects since the beginning of March.

I know have a more extensive online SHOP on my website which is growing. Also a range of felt making kits suitable for adults and children. Having completed pieces I am selling them in my SHOP.

Creative Kits

The kits can be purchased from my online shop either by going to the Shop section of the navigation or by clicking the link I’ve added to the home page. You’ll also notice that gift vouchers have been extended from 6 months to 12 months to allow time for the epidemic to subside and life to return to normal. Hopefully, it won’t take anywhere near that long – but let’s not tempt fate!

I have also started work on making online training courses for those of you who would like to see a demonstration of how to use a particular kit. Youtube

Gift Vouchers

This past month has not all been fun and games for Feltworld. Understandably, course bookings are down due to the restrictions, but at least if you can’t get out to the shops to buy something special for a friend or relative, see gift vouchers which will give a special person something to look forward to when things calm down.

Another disappointment was having to postpone the felt making teaching retreat in France that I was due to lead this summer.
Oh well, there’s always next year! If interested, please enquire.

On-line tutoring. I have started making online training courses for those of you who would like to see a demonstration of how to start a particular kit.
