Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Thought I’d write to you today. Got up really early, Dave went off to Clarity, to get ahead of the game there, and I did some computer work that needed completing before tomorrow. All done, and feeling quite accomplished. Time check? 9am. They know how to spend their Sundays! 😂 😂 It’s just as well Dave and I share the approach that it’s best to just get it done, then relax into the knowledge…
Hi there Sorry I’ve been AWOL. It’s a bit of a scramble right now, friends. Since Create & Craft folded, we have been pedal to the metal here at Clarity! Firstly, we had to focus all our attention and transfer all our energy to our own little TV channel, in a bid to keep going. If you are on Facebook at all, you will have seen that loads of suppliers and presenters were on the move almost instantly. Totally get…
Hi there If you joined me for the Mixed media Craftalong yesterday evening, THANK YOU! I hope it was interesting? Like I said, it’s all about the sequence and knowing your material – how much you need, and how fast it dries. Well, that aside, if you were there, you will already have heard the good news! Yep. How about a really cool afternoon online – a whole afternoon – together, making something really lovely – either for your wall,…
Hi there. I’ve been having more playtime this morning, with those new landscape masks and stamps. So excited about them! The scenery masks are a game changer. I actually wish Sunday would come round faster, so I can show you!! But then again, there’s so much to do at work, I really ought not to wish the week away! Tomorrow, we are back on the SHAC-bus at 10am. Last session on the L for LOVE. The bus driver went ahead…
Hi there. Many of you who do Facebook will have seen all the posts yesterday, from presenters and staff at Create & Craft, that they went into administration at midnight. A blow indeed. I held back on saying anything publicly, because it was important for the staff there to receive and digest the news that they have lost their jobs. Many of these people are my friends, and I love them dearly. There are still so many unanswered questions, and…
Hi there Sorry to be so cryptic! But I did want to attract your attention! The doors are closing on a couple of things ! Firstly, we were in the States when the doors opened for the 2024 Craft Award Nominations, so we haven’t asked you until now to consider putting a tick next to Clarity! Sorry. But here we are now, giving you the link – because the doors close on Tuesday!! Yikes! https://craftworld.com/cms/craftawards Here are the categories which…
Hi there How about a Happy Weekend Sale? When you think there is nothing to celebrate, give yourself a reason! It’s in full flow, and sales are going very well. Thank you !! I have conjured up a picture in my mind; let me share it with you… If this website were an actual shop, an actual bricks and mortar building, with a front door and a till, and smiling shop assistants in aprons ready to assist – you wouldn’t…
Hi there, I promised to give you any updates and keep you in the loop, so here goes. One of the lovely buyers from Create called me this afternoon, to let me know that there’s been a change of plan, and they won’t be broadcasting LIVE until Friday now. No comments or opinions please. I said I’d keep you posted, and I have. Let’s just agree that you can’t help the thoughts that come into your head, but you don’t…
Hi there Picked up a kebab on the way home from Clarity Towers, from the local Kebambulance, (I kid you not!). Woofed it down as soon as we’d fed Erik and Ragnar the cats, (No. Not Doner!) I ate more of the salad than Dave, just cos it’s healthier (and he won’t eat anything that’s been even NEAR cucumber! 😂) It was real soul food. Hot and spicy. And a £9 portion was more than enough for both of us!…
Hi Went for our flu jab, which was pretty rapid! In one door and out the other! Literally one minute from entry to exit. God bless the NHS. Then went for an early walk up on the forest with Dave, to clear the head. Got to keep it in the day, stop projecting. Serves no purpose. I decided to clear up my art room when we got back; what a mess it was! Still hadn’t even cleared away the boxes…
