Art Fun
August Update:
Our workshop last Saturday was one of service. We had minimal girls at the home but still a lot got done! We had two new volunteers, Amber and Ann, that joined us for our service project. The girls of Wallace House watched as Mrs. Renee showed them how to take scraps of fabric and turn them into dog and cat chew toys. You basically take three strands of fabric, tie a rubber band at the top and then braid tightly. Once finished you take the rubber band off and tie both ends. Super easy to do!

Next, Renee, Laura, Amber and Ann cut the fleece fabeic out to make tie blankets. Another easy thing to make. The girls chatted with Allison, Laura, Ann, Amber and Renee while they tied the blankets. We had a total of 11 blankets once finished! Renee will take these items to her local animal shelter. They run solely on donations and grants. Once she drops them off we hope to snap some pics of the animals using them.
It was a really great day. Afterwards some volunteers and the leaders met at Laura’s house for the regional retreat. Such a fun day!
