Arts & Crafts Workshop #6, Camp Dining Hall, 08.14.06, Afternoon
[OOC: As is common at this point, little to nothing from me during the day. Ping in the "Talk to Tick" thread if you need me. Workshop Info Post!]
"With just one more week before our final workshop, I thought it would be nice to arm you all for your futures here in Fandom. What I'm about to give each of you is a great weapon, perhaps one of the most powerful tools ever forged by man!"
The Tick pulled a large box out from under the front table. Opening the box up, he pulled out a three foot long plastic spoon. "SPOOOOOOOON! The mighty spoon! Utensil for eating! Metaphor for Justice! Is there anything it can't do? Of course there is! It can't not be a spoon, for one, which is something you won't be doing with it this afternoon. What you will be doing is personalizing a spoon for yourself using any and all of your decorative skills and the materials available at the front of the room! Paint, glitter, tinsel, fabric... anything you need should be up here!"
"This week for your scrapbooks, we're focusing on a certain phrase: 'you can't judge a book by it's cover.' While it's a reasonable saying for many things, it doesn't count in scrapbooks. In scrapbooking, the cover is the outer extension of everything that's inside! The cover should be as much a piece of art as anything on the inside. Mine is a simple blue, but if you look carefully you'll see a really keen antennae pattern in it. You don't have to get that detailed, but we need something for the front of the book that says your name in a non-literal fashion!"
"Remember, since next week will be our final workshop, you'll be turning in your scrapbooks at the beginning of the afternoon, then we'll be displaying your work!"
