A very busy workshop with everyone putting in amazing effort to get their projects finished in time.

The result is a brilliant collection of little happy snowmen. Well done makers

Lanterns, Postboxes and Plenty of Progress ..

We now have lots more Christmas Lanterns underway, each one at a different stage and every single one looking great. The colours and the ideas are all starting to shine through.

Karen has finished the main assembly on her post box and has added the base colour too. A big project and it’s really starting to take shape.

A Mighty Little Tree and a Big Day of Making…

A lot of things got done today.

Ben and Jack both finished their Christmas Lanterns and they look fantastic. Ben also took his Hogwarts Castle home
Dave has quietly started a new project. It’s a gift he’s designing so it’s all a bit shhh for now, but we can say it involves more 3D modelling and printing.

Chesney has been creating and printing more tiny animals with some very skilful painting on the details.

More work on the Castlechurch Primary School Props..also we had a birthday football shield made today,

And without giving too much away for anyone planning a visit to the Christmas Tree Festival… our tree is now decorated. It might be small but it is mighty with all our makers proudly on display.

Find Your Face on our Christmas Tree!

We’re thrilled to be taking part in the St. Mary’s Christmas Tree Festival in Stafford this year.

To celebrate our brilliant makers, we’ll be decorating our tree with photo baubles featuring the wonderful people who make our community what it is. ❤️

The festival runs from 4th–10th December 2025 at St. Mary’s Church, with beautifully decorated trees from local groups, schools, charities, and businesses filling the space with festive magic.

If you’re popping in… have a look and see if you can spot yourself somewhere on our tree! 🎄👀

A Wonderful Day of Making Together…

We brought out our BIG soldier and race car today for a couple of fantastic maker sessions with families from Rugeley and Cannock — huge thank you to the libraries for inviting us!.

It’s been a wonderful day filled with laughs, smiles and so much excitement.

Some absolutely fabulous designs were created, and it’s been a joy watching families craft together and share the fun.

Thank you to everyone who came — you truly made our day extra special.

🎄✨ Christmas Makes Taking Shape ✨🎄

A really lovely day in the Maker Space. Andrew finished his Advent Tree and the last couple are not far behind.

Christmas Lanterns have officially taken over the tables and they’re already looking fab with lots of colour and detail appearing.

We’ve got two very pink lampshades in progress and Trevor has been steadily building Marley’s Ghost chains, link by link.

Great work from everyone.

Happy Friday
