The Superior Express -

The Nelson Rubies got together in the Legion meeting room Thursday, Dec. 7 for an afternoon of crafts, refreshments and a fun random gift exchange.

Teresa Walton demonstrates how to begin to paint Poinsettias.

Janice Watts gave a demonstration on decorating bars of soap and even the professed non-artisans were able to create their own useable masterpiece.

Teresa Walton showed the group how to paint poinsettias on fabric, wood and other materials. Because of the time needed to draw, paint, emblazon and dry the items it was decided to wait until the following week to create the items of the member's choice in a special session. Anyone who wishes to try this media is welcome to attend - just let Teresa or DeAnna Tuttle know and they will supply the details.

This event rounded out the Ruby Year and new monthly committee assignments and member listings will be available by the end of the year.
