Christmas centre piece ideas ... coming soon
A more traditional approach
The Cork School of Arts and Design

Hey guys .... twas the one without me last week so nothing too much to write about really.

Next Sunday's episode is the last in the current season.

Smarmore Castle in county Dundalk ..... yes! a castle :)

Cushions and furniture placement will be a big feature as well as a wonderfully transformed reception hallway.

Shhhh...... thats all the gossip til the show airs.

In the meantime -

My Limperts' Academy of Design class has started back, with a smaller group than last year. Recession bites eh!

I am the only boy in the class again :)

We're well into the swing of it now and so far so good .... everyone seems calm.

That is of course because we haven't started drafting or plans yet lol. That's when the tears come.

I jest ..... or do I? :)

Once the At Your Service series of blogs is done, I will be building up to Christmas with some cleverly creative decoration ideas.

If you have any of your own please email them to me at karlfradgley@ireland.com

If anyone is interested in learning the art of creating table centre pieces and hand made wreaths and other decorations, my design college ... The Cork School Of Arts and Design runs a day long workshop at the start of December - dedicated to Christmas decorating and how to create unique and personalized presentations.

Contact Victoria on 0857331410 for more information.

Ok .... thats me for today.

Don't forget to tune in on Sunday for the last show and I'll be back to blogger ya Monday or Tuesday next week.
