crafting groups
I am in the process of moving to Alhaurin el Grande and would love to know if there are any local craft groups.
I am interested in card making and scrapbooking, if there is no local groups feed back on whether it would be worth starting one would be ideal.
I know it is one of those activities that people do not tend to do but always know someone who does it. How easy is it to get papercraft supplies?

Re: crafting groups
Hi
I live in Mallorca and there isnt any clubs here as far as i know. I think there are a few over in mainland spain and if you google search you may find where they are. As for supplies i couldnt find them here either and being a card maker this was annoying for me as i would have to order from uk and pay hughe postage costs and wait ages for them. I have now set up my own craft supplies online, dont think i can post the site on here but if you search google for card making supplies mallorca, you will find me there. Good luck with the move and dont give up the card making!!

There is a British newsagents in El Grande. They seem to know everything lol!! So when you arrive you could pop in and ask them or look at their "ad board". I would imagine that they'd sell craft type products and supplies! Also I believe a foriegners centre has recently opened in the town
