Hi there Thanks for dropping by. Youtube Tuesday it is, and Groovi it is too! I am doing a neat little 3-D illusion trick using our designer parchment. Enjoy. xx This designer parchment is brilliant – even if I say so myself! And it’s available at a great price all week, until next Tuesday, if you fancy treating yourself . In fact, all the lovely products pictured below are ! Click the here to find out more! Before I forget…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Sitting here at Heathrow, Terminal 3, watching the world go by, waiting for Grace to land. It has been a long day again. Zipped up to Hochanda this morning, then came straight here. Managed to avoid most of the traffic, although the M25 is pretty savage any time of the day or night, innit. Did I tell you I got done for speeding? Got fined £100 and got 3 points on my licence too….
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. All the excitement of the past few days caught up with me today. Had a spot of G.E.S. all day. Let’s see if you can work that one out !! Tell you what – if anybody guesses this acronym, I’ll send them a £20 Clarity Gift Voucher. If, like the last time I played this game, when pretty much EVERYBODY guess H.E.F.T., then I will put all the winning names in a hat and…
Hi there, Thanks for dropping in. Just got back from Ditton, after another super duper day. Honestly, it was just brilliant. The vibe, the atmosphere, the whole thing was just brilliant. If you don’t mind I will keep it short and sweet this evening, because I just need my bed. But before I climb the stairs to winken blinken and nod, I want to say a special thank you to all those who came and helped make the 2 days…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Just sitting in the hall with Dave and Paul, chatting to you on my phone. What can I tell you? We had the best day! On the way here early this morning, I actually was feeling sick. Just so anxious about whether there would be enough loo roll, whether the car park would be big enough, whether the hall would be light enough, airy enough etc etc etc. But it ran like clockwork ….
Hi there, Stop the clock! Just got in from having supper with the crew. Hall’s all set ready for Ditton Open Day No. 1. I just have to figure out what I am doing tomorrow! My morning was interesting. Whilst the men – hunter gatherers – loaded the van, it was my job to go foraging for food – #CashnCarry. So I wrote a list of what we will need in order to make about 600 rounds of sandwiches and…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in! Dashing out the door to pottery. There’s sooooo much work on the table here, and those two pesky gits Wurka and Hollick have been badgering me all morning to just capitulate and knuckle down. But. It has to be done. Can’t miss it. At so many different levels, I have to go to class! Apart from anything, I threw a load of little pots at the Throwdown on Saturday morning, and HAVE to turn…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. We are still at work, getting ready for the Open Days, so I am going to hand over to Sam Crowe today. She has done a superb little video for us, using the Gelpress. I watched with great interest as she plucked colour from the Gelpress plate, a little at a time, a layer at a time, and built her printed cards. Very arty, very creative – and actually, very easy, once you know…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. On Mondays I show off one of the products of the month, …so today let’s look at the GROOVI POPPYFIELDS. Very apt after last week’s 6th June D-Day Memorial. Lest we forget, eh? I designed this one. Whenever you see a large moon and a couple of fields, you can assume it’s one of mine! A wonderfully evocative Art Nouveau design, perfect for a card of remembrance, or a seasonal parchment project you might seek to create….
Hi there. Thanks for dropping by. Just got in from London, after a fabby day with my friend Anita at the V&A. We visited both the Mary Quant AND the Christian Dior exhibitions. BOTH brilliant. Very different fashion houses, but BOTH inspirational. I wanted to be a fashion designer when I was younger ! Do you think I still have time to squeeze that career in? Worth a crack, hey ?!? Mary Quant. What a Chelsea babe ! She certainly…
