Hi there! I was scrolling back through my photo library, looking for something specific. My oh my!! There’s so much artwork!! Years and years and years of projects, of step by steps. Crazy really. And I remember most of the artwork too. There’s a definite chronology, and I can see when Groovi entered the picture, when masks were introduced, when Linda came on board – it’s like a time lapse. But there‘s one collection of stamps which draws me back…
Hi there Busy day at Clarity Towers today. Had a good meeting with the team, and ticked a load of boxes. Since we are launching brand new, really REALLY useful stamps designed by Jazz, and a new game-changer product this Sunday (invented and made almost entirely by Dave), there is a lot to consider! …Like I said, there is a whole can of P’s for a 2-hour TV show! But I am really looking forward to showing you what we’ve…
Hi there Happy New Year! New Year – new ideas! I have been deep in thought all morning, considering the future. I’ve been thinking about the past year, too, and how Work/Create & Craft TV seriously interrupted play in 2024! The good news is – I’ve figured a few things out! Anyway, I have been going round and round the old house here, tidying, sorting and cleaning, whilst simultaneously going round and round the virtual houses in my head, which…
Hi there It’s that in between time. That time between Christmas and the New Year. I really like it. It’s a time to step away from the daily routine, the bump and grind, and just do whatever tickles your fancy. This morning I went into Tunbridge Wells with another Barb – Dave’s sister. She’s up from Devon for Christmas, and spending it with us. She’s a lovely woman. We parked up early, walked the length of the old town, had…
Happy Boxing Day! I hope you are having a good time this Christmas. We have been to Rye today, walking along the coast, taking in the sea air. So many people had the same idea! But it was pleasant, and a bit of fresh air – together with good conversation along the way – was just lovely. It’s the simple things in life. We then came back and had the exact same Christmas dinner as yesterday, but without all the…
Hi there. It’s the weekend before Christmas, millions of people are on the move, the roads will be clogged, the airports will be packed – but I’m quite happy to stay close to home. We may venture out on the Ashdown Forest for a walk to Pooh bridge later on, as long as the weather behaves, but other than that, a swift trip to Morrisons first thing tomorrow morning for some Christmas essentials will do me! No, no, no. No…
Hi there Last minute Christmas gift ideas coming up…our Gift Cards just got interesting… I gift subscriptions quite often to friends. We live in such excess, and I think that giving them the key to a year of activity or interesting entertainment is a good gift. The V&A and Audible are my faves. In turn, I have received Theatre tokens and Pottery Class tokens – which I am always so grateful for! So at Clarity we have decided that this…
Hi there Once again, I apologise for going AWOL, and not blogging for what feels like weeks. I can’t even come up with a good excuse, except that we’ve been working such long hours at Clarity, that the evenings just became a time to sit down and switch off. I treated us to Parker Knoll recliners a while ago. You know, the electric ones which bring the foot rest up and the back down, and even tip you out when…
Hi there Before I head on over to Clarity Towers for our 3-5pm TV Show (on Facebook LIVE / Youtube / our own Website) I am excited to shine a light on our new Gift Vouchers / Gift Cards. They just got beautiful! Shop Gift Cards here: https://claritycrafts.com/collections/clarity-gift-cards Now, if you go to our Gift Voucher Section on the website, you simply select the £ amount you want to give, and choose the lovely Pinky Gray card you would like…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Thought I’d write to you today. Got up really early, Dave went off to Clarity, to get ahead of the game there, and I did some computer work that needed completing before tomorrow. All done, and feeling quite accomplished. Time check? 9am. They know how to spend their Sundays! 😂 😂 It’s just as well Dave and I share the approach that it’s best to just get it done, then relax into the knowledge…
