Good Evening All.

Hope you all had a lovely day today.

Well my Carer Julia,took me to Henshaws guess what!
just outside henshaws wow Bon Jovi concert is to take place tonight at 7.30pm.
Lots of people all gathered along the streets wow even lots of Burger caravans 
and hot dogs gosh fancy smelling then all the way along.
making me hungry hahahehehehehehe Huge stage near tram station near Old 
traffored 
While we were all in Henshaws we could hear the band tuning up .Anyway in 
henshaws we had dinner first I had sanddwiches and yougurt and cuppa.
After that we all got started 
Pat,our art teacher introduced Glen business woman who came last year.
Glen got us all to make ourselves a bus pass holder.
Leather material soft if you know what I mean 
well anyway goodness there was a lot to make hard work believe me.
Glen showed the volunteers and carers.
So first of all 

We had piece ofLeather about the size of a a4 paper but cut that in half to 
give you an idea.

After that we glued two peices of cardboards strong ones on each side of 
material so just imagine now you have material flat on table in front of you.

Place cardboards on each side of one and other.

After that,we glue the cardboards on but leave some material showing around the 
edges.
Now then carer and volunteers cut corners on each corner 
so easy to stick down around the cardboard 
now you have a nice two sides with lovely cover on.
now then in middle you have gap put material in middle so you have a binder if 
you know what I mean.
So you can close the book.
just to give you all an idea there.
Looks lovely 
Right after that we made little peices for each side but smaller then the 
cardboard on .
just imagine your putting smaller pocket on top of large pocket . Anyway right 
get a cardboard frame now cut out in middle.
Put on top of material again 
Carer cut middle out.
Right you stick the material over the cardboard window so that you now have a 
frame open in middle and nicely covered.

Right stick that on inside one side of wallet 

that is so your bus pass will show when slipped in to the opening.
Now on other side your doing the same but no window in it. that is to slip your 
rail card in.
Oh they are so lovely and proffessional done.
I am very pleased with mine.

Heres how to imagine it now 
just imagine your purse is now open where wallet part is.
Well you know all them different sizes of pockets one for this and one for that 
etc 
well its a bit like that 
Very good.
 This lady Glen makes jewellery boxes storage boxes glasses case boxes pencil 
case boxes picture frames diary and note book holders 
Dolles houses with hexigan roof wow fasinating believe me 
She makes telephone boxes too 
hexigan boxes for a storage box bowl type box round of course you can put your 
fruit in.
She makes long boxes with 4 little draws in 
She is just so brilliant and very proffessional .
Glen is coming at Christmas to show us all how to make a lovely beautiful gift 
box to put a christmas present.
I am looking forward to that now.
When she gets the new websight for her business I will put it out on here.

Right take care 
Love Carol x.x.x.x
