Demo for local aged care centre

[dai sensei]

Did a demo this week for a local aged care centre. Normally we do a demo inside to 10-12 people interested in woodworking, but this was an outside event with numerous other people (spinners & weavers, beading etc etc) on the centre's Robin Hood Day with many all dressed up. Various knights, brothers, queens, kings etc etc even a few female nurses as wenches :2tsup:. Unlike other demos we have done for aged care centres, those from this centre that attended were incapacitated in wheel chairs or with failing eyesight in walking frames :-. But the nurses, management and careers did enjoy the effort we went to.

Anyway, here are a few shots of the potpourri bowl I did out of Budgeroo, the bark inclusion stabilised with CA as usual :U. Simple EEE/Shellawax finish, filled with dried rose petals and some essential oil, then donated to the centre.

Cheers
