Canon PIXMA Animals Crafts Workshop and a Record Setting Experience

The first time I attended a Canon Workshop was in June and last weekend I had the privilege to attend the Canon PIXMA Animals Crafts Workshop (thanks to omy.sg and Canon). I learned how to make more cool crafts: from calendars to bookmarks and even a door sign; even discovering more wondrous properties of the PIXMA printers. It was an afternoon of creativity and fun as pieces of paper took a life of their own and became adorable (useable) things!

Supplies to get started

Ready to start! The first item was a calendar - a record setting calendar.

Besides being a (fun) workshop it was also an occasion (and opportunity) to get into the Singapore Book of Records for having the most number (193!!) of people making calendars (in the same at the same time)! This is probably the only time I am ever going to have a record for such an accomplishment so it was an interesting (once in a lifetime) experience. While the workshop was mostly targeted at children, there was a table or two of bloggers who were the bigger 'kids'; attempting the crafts themselves ourselves. The emcees did an excellent job interacting and engaging with the children through games. Check out the (first) video (I painstakingly edited) on the event below (shot using the Canon LEGRIA mini):




With so many creative crafts that Canon has to offer, it's relatively easy to create and personalize any chosen craft as a present, decoration, something that can be used or simply just for the fun of it. It was a fun and lively workshop (even for the big 'kids'); a discovery lesson for latent arts and crafts talent to surface.
