Monday Groovi Bauble Project.

Monday Groovi Bauble Project.

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. And thanks for watching our shows if you did, and thanks for your custom, if you decided what we had on offer  was for you xxx Took over 6 hours to get home. M11 traffic. Ah well, the lorry driver whose truck caught fire probably had a worse day than most of us bringing up the rear of the procession.  Here’s a bauble step by step with a difference. Inspired by lovely Linda Williams…

Sunday Snowflake

Sunday Snowflake

Hi there Thanks for popping in. Cor blimey!Just did the launch hour on HOCHANDA  and wanted to share the first demo with you, which was intended – not to baffle you with science – but to explain the basic concept behind our Duets.  It’s very very simple, but my word!  The possible options when using the two plates in combination are far too numerous to count.  Let’s start with a simple frame on clear parchment. Wipe BOTH sides of the…

Overload

Overload

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. I went to my creative space today, but the cupboard was bare. Or should I say full? I can honestly say that my head is so full,  that there isn’t the space for anything new just now. Art yes. Business no. It’s been a gradual process, this filling up.  Many years of gathering ideas, information, knowledge, crap,  unresolved dilemmas, political debate, business deals, numbers –  an endless daily mental pummeling. There’s so much to…

Gratitude in spadefuls. Let me take you to Rye, where we…

Roast Lamb? Dream on!

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Beautiful day here darn sarf. Sunday.  Early morning walk,  then breakfast on the veranda. Read the paper and drink coffee. Roast a leg of lamb slowly in the Aga. Spot of weeding in the garden, deadhead the flowers and water the hanging baskets. Reality check. Get up at 7, see Dave off to work,  and clear a space in the kitchen to erect the ironing board. Listen to Stephen Fry read me Sherlock Holmes…

Carpe Diem! A simple, EARLY step by step

Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Just got home about an hour ago, had a little catch up with Dave, and then thought I’d come upstairs to chat to you. Tell you what, I was thinking about you on the drive home. How amazing that so many of you were watching at 7 am! I asked you to join me, so I wasn’t flying solo,  but I honestly didn’t expect so many of you to actually show up! And then…
