We have received a fabulous bit of feedback from one of our members.
Thank you Tina from Shinyies.


"I have always been proud to say that I am a member of the PCG and a writer for Creative Crafting magazine, and at a recent meeting I realised just how much credibility I am awarded by mentioning this.

I had been selected to supply the shop in a stately home/museum in my local area. During our meeting I mentioned Creative Connections and what I am part of. You could see on the faces of the people in the meeting that I had moved from a crafter to a professional. Being a member of the Professional Crafters Guild and a writer suddenly gave me prestige and credibility.

Thank you Anna and Creative Connections for giving me professional status."

Let's call this Whacky Wednesday!
