We Love October!

Tuesday, October 3, 2017

We are so excited that it’s October!

We’ve got great things planned so be sure to spend some creative time with us.

In addition to drop-in D.I.Y. creating we have a new feature at CReATE where we’ll be spotlighting one of our core material themes with ideas, inspirations and a top or two. This month we’re spotlighting paper and it’s many uses in creative expression. Take a look at our Ociber banner here and you’ll see it’s versatility in this one project alone!

We’ll be on the road a bit this month, spending a weekend at The City of Agoura Hills Reyes Adobe Days to spark creativity as well as Westlake Village’s City Celebration with our @WestlakeVillageRocks good vibes rock painting. We’ll be at E.A.R.T.H.S Magnet for spooky fun too.

We have our awesome lineup of creative outlets in Two for One Tuesdays, Easy Project Wednesdays, Homeschool Thursdays, Machine Sewing, Girls Club Strong, Messy Toddler Art  Fun, Birthday Parties, Troop visits, Spotlight on Paper, Try-it Cart fun with Oil Pastels, Featured Material of The Week items and a FREE Crafty Happy Hour this Friday from 3-5. 
Let’s get our creativity flowing starting today with Two for One Tuesday where two CReATE to the price of one, that’s extra fun!

Happy Friday!

If you could make apps that got you out and about doing fun things with friends, what would they be? 

This was just a little of the fun we had a Girls Club Strong at CReATE today.

Would you look at that…

Pondering the mesmerizing wonders of finger painting, one of the best modes of artistic expression around.

Thinking back on my favorite things about being a mom, I relished the times when I could put all the daily house tasks aside to just be with my kids. It wasnt easy to get there but It was so worth the state of wonder I would climb into as I got present with my kids. There was a deep sense of joy that came from the state of marveling at whatever they were doing that my kids always seemed to linger in. Bliss.

My kids are older now, in college, but I still get to put the (studio) tasks aside and join the kids at the studio in their states of wonder as they tape, glue or finger paint their way through creativity.

Flying…

What started as a messy rock painting morning quickly turned to giant paper airplanes made from book covers donated by our friends at The City of Thousand Oaks. 

We were coloring, taping and flying all around the studio.

Woo Hoo!

Surprise Fun!

We had children’s book author, Sadhna Sheli @firehouse1kids getting messy with us this morning for Messy Toddler Art Fun. She brought a copy of her new book, the first from her Firehouse 1 series, “Fire At The Bakery.” 

What a fun book for kids. It’s got great details and adventure!

Wow!

Remember Aavah’s sewing idea from our Project Sewing class last week?

Here’s the finished product she made. 

She learned how to make bunting, consider spacing for her letters , sew a rag garland and attach it to her bunting. Now she’s super skilled!

Well done Aavah!

Happy Tuesday!
