From macrame mirrors to paper bead necklaces, I really enjoy crafting, especially with the TV on in the background. Welcome to my evenings, for the most part!

I have a fun workshop where we make the world record-holding paper plane. The design was created by John Collins and thrown by Joe Ayoob, and set the Guinness World Record in California in 2012. The world record was beaten in December 2022! Yes it was! And in fact it was beaten in April 2022 as well. So if you would like to learn to make the third-longest distance flown by a paper plane, I'm your gal!

"Invented" in 2014 by Pavel Piskarev, Neurographica combines subconscious and conscious drawing to create a piece of art designed to help you problem-solve. By putting our concern on a piece of paper in the form of a subconscious line, and then calming harsh thoughts through the next phase of drawing, we are interrupting our natural desire to try and fix the problem there and then. Have you ever had your best ideas when you remove yourself from the situation? You go for a walk, or chat to a friend and bingo - it comes to you. That is the idea behind this relaxing, and meditative process.
