Hello everyone,
Well what a busy & hot time we have had a Buttons. Last week was the start of the Festival of Speed at Goodwood in Chichester. We set up last Tuesday in the baking heat, putting up banners, dressing the craft tables and generally getting everything ready.
The event then started on Thursday 11th and went on until Sunday 14th and if anything it got hotter.
It was fantastic!
Even with the 4.30am starts, the heat and getting home gone 7 each night we all had a amazing time and can’t wait for next year already. Buttons provided crafts in the family marquee over the four days and the lovely people we met and the feedback we received was better then I could have hoped for. Over the four day we crafted with over 450 children and went though over 2000 crafts.
On your marks, Get set, Craft!
Car sun catchers, sand art and much more
We even got to meet Turbo!
Red Arrows
As well as working our socks of to make sure all the children had tons of fun and something fab to take home we also got some time to look around and even have a go on some of the attractions.
Each car stand had something going on and we all came back with Honda Sunglasses, Michelin hats and enjoyed a yummy ice cream while watching a 4D film on the Skoda stand. Stevie & Mercy even had a go on the surf machine on the Peugeot stand! Just want you need in 30+ heat.
Time for some fun
