On the weekend, I got to take part in a fun Gocco workshop with my fellow blogging and creative friend, Jo from
Bubala at
Sweets Workshop which was run by the lovely Emma and John! I was SO excited to learn all about Gocco and OMG it didn't disappoint... it was so much fun! I can totally understand why people go a bit nutso and slightly crazy over Gocco! LOVE it!
I had SO much fun... I just love learning new fun things! Here is my day in pictures :)

I am so thrilled with how they turned out! Emma and John were so lovely and helpful, such a great little workshop!
Sweets Workshop will be having a Gocco exhibition on the 23rd March and "kitty luvs bear" will be in it! I'm so excited!

Oh wow, I actually checked out this post because I didn't know what gocco is. Looks very addictive to me...
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous, it looks like so much fun! I've always wanted to try Gocco, but given the expense, it just hasn't happened yet. So wonderful that you got to play with it!
ReplyDeleteAW! Sooo cute, Lamina! What an exciting new technique. I've never heard about this before now. I see Kitty and Bear in a series of things. They are so sweet!
