We have a winner!

Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just a quickie today, to announce the winner of the teabag counting competitio! Grace is on her way from the States today, so I am blitzing the house, and getting it all nice for her visit. A combination of multiple TV shows, a week of workshops and a generally hectic time is all well and good, but I do honestly enjoy a little housework to regroup and come back down to earth. Nothing like…

Hi there Thanks for popping in. Dave’s gone to work to make the rest of the extra stock stencils which sold on telly this week, (makes for an easier Monday, as he says), and I’ve been having a little spring clean. Well, I’ve been putting away the last of the Christmas decorations to be precise! Yep. Like I said. This year has been all out of sync. It’ll be ok though. Main thing is we’re here, and we’re getting there!!…

Who wants to play?

Hi there Thanks for popping in. Talking of Jigsaw puzzles and Solitaire, who likes anagrams? Whilst having a clear out the other day, I came across one I made up many moons ago as a warm-up ice-breaker game for a workshop. So I thought I’d change it a little, freshen it up, and offer it up to you. How about a little bloggy competition too…for a chance to win a £20 Clarity gift voucher! Just for fun of course. Here…

Keep Calm and Carry on Crafting!

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Yep. The world is going mad, and all we can do is keep calm and carry on crafting!! Whether you make cards for Ukraine, or knit socks for the neighbours, it doesn’t matter – JUST MAKE SOMETHING! My distraction, my calm place, my serenity is in clay. Although I haven’t had much time for pottery lately – that will change again – I did manage to pinch a little trio of pots last weekend….

Hi there Thanks for popping in. Happy Bank Holiday Monday! Thought I’d have a proper sort out in my artroom this morning, in readiness for the working week ahead, and in the very first box I found a set of ClarityCraft StampClub back issues. The words on the stamp of the month hit me between the eyes! And what’s more, the older I get, the longer my list of things to do – and the more pertinent those words are…

Sweet Ginkgo Blog Candy!

Sweet Ginkgo Blog Candy!

Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just a quickie before I go open the kiln! Always exciting when the door opens. Did the glaze work? Did the pots hold? Did anything explode? And this time, did that reglaze work? Mmmm… More will be revealed. It’s been a day of clearing the decks, putting everything away from yesterday’s TV show 2-4pm. Those two hours always go by so fast! I hope you enjoyed the demos anyway. I was certainly pretty wiped…
