Hi there,thanks for popping in. HOME. Let’s talk about HOME. What a word, eh? Home is where the heart is, Home is where I hang my hat… There’s no place like Home. It’s so good to be back home… Home isn’t a place – it’s a feeling. Home is a shelter from storms – all kinds of storms. Home is where our story begins. Pick a line, any line. They all resonate with me. How about you? HOME. We just…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. You know Linda Williams, don’t you? The super talented Welsh Parchment artist? My best friend too, as it happens. To know her is to love her. And I certainly do love her. Quite aside from being a uniquely creative individual, and having a wonderful art style of her own, she really is a fabulous woman. And this evening we are very proud to be launching a brand new Groovi collection of her art. Read…
Happy Easter Sunday! I hope the sun is shining where you are, and that you are enjoying this Easter weekend? I have been going through today’s TV demos one more time this morning, to make sure I have everything to hand when it kicks off at 2pm. I hope you can join me on The Craft Store (Hochanda) for a couple of hours between 2 and 4 pm. I shall be taking you on a whistle stop tour of London,…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Thoroughly enjoying a weekend off here. Actually, my idea of a weekend off is hardly what YOU might call a weekend off ! I have spend hours clearing away Friday’s TV wreckage (it always looks like a big Bomzitit after a busy TV show !) I’ve also been prepping, writing, planning, blogging and preparing for tomorrow’s SHAC. I’ve been cleaning, doing laundry, changing the bedding, blitzing the pottery studio to make room for the…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Just came off Hochanda Live TV. Really love working with those people. They are, without exception, a really smashing bunch. Actually, if you haven’t heard, the channel has a new name: THE CRAFT STORE by HOCHANDA. Finally! Very happy about this. I have been suggesting since DAY 1 that they include the word CRAFT in the name of the channel, only so that newcomers surfing the internet or SKY actually KNOW that we are…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Busy gearing up for the SHAC SHAC Birthday this weekend! Actually, the celebration starts at midnight tonight – when our Mammoth Birthday Event kicks off with a 20% Blanket Sale across pretty much everything on the website (except products released in the past month). And since we’re celebrating the SHAC SHAC, that 20% is increased to 30% on Stamps and Groovi in the SHAC SHOP! Add your Clarity Club Discount to that, and you’re…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Been a good day today. Set off to Venice in the SHAC Shack Bus, and started drawing a very cool Venetian Mask. We’ve made a digi download of the mask shape, just in case you’re struggling with it. I shall make sure it’s easy for you to find on the front of the Clarity Website tomorrow morning xx in plenty of time for Wednesday 10am, when we mask up again and carry on in…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just coming down after our Reflection Session in the Moment of Clarity live Craftalongabarbie. I really enjoyed that! My kinda thing! Those reflection masks hit the spot for me 100%. Like putting on a comfy pair of shoes…I did take a few photos, just in case anybody wants to check out the sequence, but to be frank, I am wiped out. Been a busy day! Between the SHAC SHAC and the 3pm hour, I’m…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Friday’s blog a private peek, right? Well, then let’s venture into the wacky world of potty pottery again. That magic place, where I come alive. You know I am happiest when I’m doing pottery, right? Anything. Coil work, slab work, wheel work. I love it, eat it, breath it. You know I do. It’s my passion. It makes my heart sing. I am no expert, in fact I am really at the start of…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. As you know, when the pandemic hit, many things were cancelled, including our annual retreats. They are a big part of the Clarity Events Calendar. Realistically, we don’t think that the Ditton Open Days will be possible this year – it’s too soon. 300 people gathered together in June when we can’t even hang out with the neighbours yet?!? Mmm…next June sounds safer! We are still working on the Ditton Retreats for this summer…
