So far, its been a great start to the new year for Pook Designz. When I returned from Jamaica, the next day there were 4 calls for Pook Designz. Follow my Facebook fan page: Pook Designz for updates. I have 3 school workshops coming up in the month of February and 1 in March. The Bradford Library has been steadily promoting the Bradford Arts Guild's workshops being hosted by local artists in Bradford. I am loving the response Pook Designz is receiving from our community. I am proud to be living in the growing town of BWG!

I just hosted a birthday party for a sweet little girl who lives on the next street over from me. Her delightful Mom sought me out to provide the craft for her daughter's 8th birthday. I had a great time - the children all in attendance were excited to participate and they did very well at making my signature piece, the Pookee. I will ask the birthday girl's Mom for pictures. The children, ages 5 to 8, I have to say they did exceptionally well. The Sculpey Bakeshop clay is soft and easy to shape and mold. Sometimes the clay can be too soft, but we manage to make it work. I challenge anyone who participated in my workshops to submit some pictures of the creations they have made. Any of my amazing Pook customers who purchased "Pookee Part kits" and clay - I would love to see your work too! I want to see what is "poking" around in your imaginations. I challenge you to come up with "Pookeez" of your own. Keep Pook Designz in mind for your next birthday - who knows what you and your friends can make in our time of "Pooking" (a term made up by our town's Mayor) together. Look forward to claying with you!
