Over the past several years, my skills have evolved. I feel a sense of satisfaction after every completed project. Sometimes, even a little disappointed after a failed completed project – never the less, just the sheer joy of being able to create something with my own hands is exhilarating.
Till the period we were living at Arabian Ranches, I held craft workshop for ladies and art classes for children. That was, till 5 years back. And then we moved to Al Warqa.
I missed my routine friendly creative exchanges with ladies and the young ones too.
There is such immense joy, when you have been instrumental in helping someone discover a latent talent.
Hence, moving to The Villa – Dubailand, gave me the opportunity to restart my workshops.
It was one of the best things about 2017, for me – CCM (creative craft mornings).
I was conducting craft workshops for women at my villa.
After a hiatus of nearly 5 years, I restarted this initiative and I was overwhelmed by the response.
In Dubai, we have sewing/quilt/crochet clubs, and we have quilling/papercrafting classes, however, I feel, there are far too many crafts that cannot be categorized and thats exactly, what I was offering.
There were ladies from the age group of 22 right upto 72 years !! These are ladies, who had the zest to learn, inspite of busy schedules and running a hectic lifestyle, between career and family. I was truly overwhelmed. I am determined to restart these workshops again this year as well.
What surprised me, is how much enthusiasm they bought with them, how quickly these earnest ladies displayed their skills, and how amazing the projects turned out – Reinforces my belief that somehow women, almost always, define themselves by any title except their skills !!
Creative Craft Mornings turned out to be a fabulous avenue to meet like minded ladies who bought with them, such enthusiasm and a desire to try out new craft forms.
Every project they attempted was remarkable, considering no one had attempted such projects before.
I truly hope to be able to carry on with newer projects here in Mirdif too.
Do you enjoy a particular hobby ? Are there any workshops close to where you live ? Would you like to join CCM in Dubai ?
