Hi there Thanks for popping in. A while ago, Linda Williams asked us to consider adding Rainbow Parchment to our range. A4 Rainbow parchment. So I spoke to Jim at work, who came up with a whole collection of lovely colourways. Those designs went to our printer, who then got to work on the prototypes.

But all the boxes are ticked now, so all I need to do is find a pair of jeans…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Been nose to the grindstone all day, prepping for Sunday. It’s been raining cats and dogs over our house! What about over yours? Ragnar and Erik are so funny in the rain. Bored indoors today…. Have you ever watched a cat try to run across the lawn without touching the grass?! They flick their feet as they scamper/levitate. Hilarious. Five minutes max and then back in the house. Five minutes indoors and they want…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Busy prepping for the imminent Sunday TV Show on The Craft Store (prev. HOCHANDA) at 2-4pm. It will be the first time I have been back in the TV studios for 15 months, which is crazy, isn’t it. We have managed to keep going seamlessly throughout this long Lockdown by linking up via Skype. I think it worked very well, all things considered, but it is time to venture back out. I am very…

My latest obsession – and possibly the greatest of all time – is surely Pottery! I say latest, because my…
