Draw a Vermeer with just one line....

I have only just seen this fantastic advert for Faber-Castell pens, it is a truly clever and original idea and I wish I had the patience to create something like this.

Diamond Jubilee Souvenir Making @ Battersea Park

Here are some handmade souvenirs that I made at the Battersea Park Diamond Jubilee Festival today.  A large tent had tables set up with lots of different creative and exciting things to make including cameos, sashes and crowns.  There was an opportunity to embellish a second hand silk scarf which the organisers had silk screen printed the queens face on.  Everything was free with the request that you made a donation to OXFAM.  It was a real success and a hive of activity, thank you.

The tent has a facebook page which you can like: www.facebook.com/DiamondJubileeSouvenirToasting
