Tuggeranong Community CentreCelebrate Canberra’s winter and come in from the cold this Sunday 29 June, 2008 with the opening of our “WINTER” indoor art and craft market within the Tuggeranong Community Centre.

Tuggeranong Map showing the location of the marketMost markets are held out in the open and it can be bitterly cold in winter - but our market within the Tuggeranong Community Centre will be a warm place for both buyers and sellers to do business without the biting winds and chilling cold.

The indoor market will feature a range of arts and crafts including aromatherapy, hand-made candles, speciality lingerie, knitting, quilling, hand-crafted jewellery, creative cards, crystals, fashion items and scrap booking supplies. Other stall holders will also be on hand offering quality manufactured goods providing buyers with a range of items to choose from.market-anna-beading.JPG

We hope the Markets become a place to shop for bargains and take up the Tuggeranong atmosphere - but even more than that. We hope they will provide local designers, artists and craftspeople the opportunity to sell their work direct to the public and that they act as a launch pad for budding entrepreneurs and anyone working in the creative industries. The Market will also allow local not-for-profit groups, sporting clubs and other organisations access to a local event to conduct fund-raising and awareness. (ie. this The Art of Quillingmonth Sunday June 29 we have the Bonython Pre-School hosting a BBQ to fund-raise for new amenties plus the Canberra Greyhound Adoption Service ‘Forever Greys’ running an information and fundraising stall to raise awareness on what they do to rehome Greyhounds).Art & Craft

The first of our winter markets will be held this Sunday, 29 June 2008 at the Tuggeranong Community Centre, Cowlishaw St, Greenway (the building next door to McDonalds) between 10am and 2pm. Entry is free to the public.

The Winter Market theme continues Sunday July 27 and Sunday August 31, 2008 so mark these dates in your diary now.

Creative Cards

I am a stay at home mum who loves her family and loves to take care of them. I love baking and spending time with special people. I have many creative interests but card making has become a real passion for me and I have met so many beautiful people through making them. I feel that cards are something not be discarded but to be re-read when reflecting or when I feel the need to be picked up. They are a constant reminder of my friends and loved ones and those who care for me. They are a celebration of people and occasions in life. So my contribution to you is to make personalised cards where you can express and write the words of comfort and life in them to inspire, encourage or console. Maybe you would just simply like to express to a friend that they are appreciated. I look forward to meeting you!

AROMAH CANDLES

SOY CANDLES - SET THE MOOD - SAVE THE PLANET

Soy CandlesAdvantages of Soy Candles

Soy Candles are cheaper:

  • Beeswax is a great alternative to paraffin, but to get the same results as a soy-based candle, it is very expensive. Soy wax is an alternative to paraffin wax that is cost effective.

Enviro Friendly

  • Soy wax is all-natural ….
  • Soy wax is a favourite of environmentally conscious people because it is not made from petroleum, like paraffin candles. Burning of soy candles does not increase the CO2 level in the atmosphere. Soy wax is also made from a renewable source.Soy Candles

Cleaning is easy

  • Wax spills are easy to clean - It’s very difficult to remove paraffin wax from furniture or textiles. Soy wax spills can easily be cleaned up with hot soapy water.
