I am running a short craft course on a Christmas theme at The Learning Centre Bexley, Brampton Road branch, on three consecutive Monday mornings: 23 November, 30 November and 7 December. It costs just £35 for the three two-hour sessions and we'll be making cards, gifts and decorations. You don't need any special skills: I can promise to inspire you with lots of ideas and help you with techniques and personalisation.

Plastic yarn
- This is a great recycling technique, transforming plastic carrier bags into yarn. The resulting yarn can be crocheted, woven or knitted into items such as rugs and bags.
