[Ravensfort] Guild Activities this Saturday

[Dan Smith Jr]

Well, I could give a demo on making the fire equipment some time in the future.  I order my wick from an online source.  That's not relevant for this weekend really...you would wanna practice A LOT before burning yourself.  Although I practice my staff 4 or 5 times per week, I seldom add fire.
So...for the staff... A wooden curtain rod (or wood dowl) would be fine.  about 4 feet.

      Thought will be a little hot, so don't burn anything while thinking!  :o)  How fun!

      What do the staves needing to be made out of for staff fire spinning?



      I will be working on the Defender Feast Tokens & have 75 completed.  I will be bringing the supplies/materials & anyone wanting to sit & 'string beads' are more than welcome to help!  I have way too many other projects/ideas so I am limiting it to beadwork on Saturday.



      One idea I have that can be worked on at a later date:



      Decorating spiral notebooks with either period/baronial colors/heraldic/officer insignia/etc designs & colors to sell with monies going towards something for the barony.  No cost to the barony (donations always appreciated from individuals).



      The 'evil empire'/wally-world had/has spiral notebooks (81/2x11, wide rule, 70 pages) on sale for .05 cents each.  I bought a few & have an idea of creating "cover art" to glue over the front of each spiral notebook (maybe even put color on the back as well) & depending on design/time, selling them with monies going to the barony (can be determined later).  All I would need to ask is for brain/man-power.  I already have the supplies & materials on hand.  Anyone wanting to donate materials/supplies is always welecomed to do so too, but it is not manditory.  Anyone interested, let me know by email/phone/person & we can start scheduling 'workshops' so that we may have some the sell at Defender...



      There are a lot of little things we can do to by getting together, making it fun & make a little money for whatever purpose (baronial/individual/?)



      regards,

      Chrystal

        I just wanted to throw out some ideas for this weekend.  As always, I have plenty of instruments to demo or teach some music... or just have an open jam.  Also, I would be happy to teach or demo some staff spinning / juggling.  I have 2 extra staves, both about 4 feet long.  If you are interested in bringing your own staff, it should be long enough to reach mid-chest from the ground.  Any longer might be tough.

        Food for thought.  - Alaric
