Mindful Wednesday. “Blessed are the cracked, for they shall let in the Light.” Groucho Marx.

Mindful Wednesday. “Blessed are the cracked, for they shall let in the Light.” Groucho Marx.

Hello. Thanks for popping in today. This Mindful Wednesday blog is becoming quite popular it seems. It is definitely changing the way I think; therefore it is changing me! I’m clearly not the only one  who has a washing machine head. Hands up!! Comforting to know we aren’t alone, eh… I have a mind that tries constantly to upset me;  it can drag me back into the past,  or catapult me into the future. It can flick the angry switch,…

YouTube Tuesday – A Groovi Introduction to Parchment.

Hello and welcome to YouTube Tuesday! Here’s a simple introduction to our new  Groovi Plates and their Mates! Oh boy! If you watched the TV Launch here in England on Sunday,  you will already know that it went haywire,  and we sold out completely of anything Groovi less than thirty minutes into the show! I think we may have hit on a winning formula for  Parchment Crafters here. We have been inundated with positive excitement! Nobody can believe the quick crisp…

Wiped out but feeling Groovi…..

Hi there. Thanks for stopping by.  Just got in from the TV Show. What a morning! We launched our new Groovi Parchment Craft System. If you watched, thank you. If you invested in us, thank you again. Sold out in half an hour. Now I know you must think “Well, she obviously doesn’t take enough stock” All I can say is, “it isn’t physically possible to make more!” In fact, we have had to buy two more Laser Cutting machines…

Hi there! Thanks for popping in.

Ah well. A week was what we planned, and a week was what we got! So here we are, being mindful, concentrating on the task at hand focussing on Thursday’s…

YouTube Tuesday – Leafy Corner Interlude

YouTube Tuesday – Leafy Corner Interlude

Hello there. It’s You Tube Tuesday and thank you for popping in! We have just had our 6 year TV birthday, you know. Yep. 7th May 2009. It was a one hour show with Martyn Parker,  and I shall never forget it. Nervous? Terrified would be more apt. Shortly after that we moved to Sunday morning Shows,  and we’ve been there ever since. We sold out of this little leafy corner within minutes on that first show, so I thought it…
