Hi there. Thanks for popping in! Happy Sunday! I do hope all is well in your camp? Just this minute landed back at home, and got out of the car to a tumultuous cheer which fairly took the rugby club roof off up the road! I am guessing England won the World Cup in cricket, so I look forward to hearing my Dad tell me all about the game. He does love his cricket. So did you craft along today?…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Woke up in a spin again. Like my Mum always says, this stuff doesn’t wash out of your clothes in one cycle. So I came up to my little den and got with my hands. Because that’s what works for me. Get out of the head and get with the hands. I think that’s maybe why doing pottery is so amazing. You have to concentrate so hard on what you are doing, you forget…
Hi there. Friday’s blog a private peek, right? Thanks for popping in. Been a busy day here, getting ready for the Craftalongabarbie on Sunday, 2-4pm HOCHANDA ! I know I know. It’s the Wimbledon finale on Sunday, so it’ll only be me and my parents – who never miss a show, come hell or high water! But whatever. Charlie and I will have a blast, and the projects I have planned for you to craftalong with us are really very…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. On my way to London for a meeting, but Thursday’s Blog is always blue, right? So how about a new trick which I stumbled upon quite by chance last week, which created a fab blue forest. I love it when things develop by chance, don’t you? Art? Or Craft? What think you? I had a debate with a lady at pottery about the difference yesterday. Who cares, as long as we are being creative!…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Just got back from the hospital. Dave’s daughter Laura has had a little boy! And what a beautiful little baby he is! Over 7lbs and just gorgeous! Mother and baby both doing well, and all things being equal, they will be allowed home tomorrow. Not even 24 hours old yet… what a little miracle he is. And his name? They haven’t decided yet. I am sure you will join us in congratulating Laura and…
Hi there, Thanks again for popping in. Been a busy old day today! Meetings really are draining when they’re back to back! But we got lots sorted, loads of new ideas in the pipeline, and all in all it was all very fruitful. But now it’s time to hand over to Sam again, for another excellent Youtube. She’s really getting good at this. I had to chuckle at the start of the video. Do watch and see her slick move…….
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Just got in from the studios. Sat in the garden with my lovely hubby and the blackbirds, and had a nice cuppa. You can’t beat a good strong cup off Yorkshire tea, can you? Thank you so much if you watched and invested in Clarity this weekend. The shoes by Cherry are pretty exquisite, they really are. Very Christmas – Not Christmas! Ran out of time this morning with the parchment project, so as…
Hi there, Thankjs for popping in. Very early here. Just thought I would quickly show you a little more of what’s in store before I hit the road. I have a feeling these boots and shoes will be very popular! Please join Cherry the artist and myself at launchtime, 6pm HOCHANDA,com Oh! And we’ve got some brand new and super useful nested tag dies on the show too… Here are a few lovely samples from the ever creative and splendid…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Somebody dropped out of Saturday’s pottery throwdown at the last minute – so guess who stepped in?! Didn’t have to be asked twice! Can’t get enough of it !! So before the TV Marathon on HOCHANDA tomorrow, I went off to throw a few pots and try to go a bit taller. I’m getting very good at little olive bowls, but I wouldn’t mind expanding into a little fruit bowl! Last time I tried…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Finally we have completed our prep for Sunday TV – and with a day to spare! What a caper! We have been working with the most exquisite stamps illustrated by Cherry Green, and just got totally engrossed in them. We don’t usually spend 4 days prepping! But Paul and I have actually had a blast. It’s certainly been a learning curve with a few things. You know when you know how to do something,…
