Hi there Thanks for popping in. You may have seen the Youtube with the Nordic Lady who builds a Christmas Tree out of her hair? Very, very funny. Anyway, I showed Grace – she who has really massive hair – and she decided to have a go. Ready? Hang on! Tinsel!!! This is what we do. Spend time together on Facetime. It’s the next best thing to being together. Yesterday evening we chatted away for an hour while I made…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Tuesday’s blog rolls back the hours, right? Well let’s look back at this day last year, and see what was going on, shall we? Blimey. Just glanced back at last year’s blog, because it is like a diary of sorts, isn’t it. Took the bus to Brighton and back a year ago today. Went shopping down the Lanes. It was a crisp winter’s day. And yesterday evening, we went up to London and spent…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Yep. Just when you thought things couldn’t get any worse – they do. The only thing that we can rely on is that this too shall pass. Our Mark called me earlier from San francisco. “Thank God I didn’t come home! What a shitshow!” were his exact words. Absolutely. What a shitshow this is indeed. And then, on the way home from work in the dark and in the pouring rain, there was a…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. According to the experts, subscriptions are on the up across the board. My guess is that as people are currently unable to join clubs physically, they are joining them remotely. I imagine that companies are also breathing a lot of energy into their online clubs, since that is the only way to do business for many. Same with our Clarity Craft Clubs. We also took a good look at them and have made some…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Been playing in the Pottalot Studio pretty much all day. It’s been a learning day. Figuring things out, so I can decorate the virgin batch which came out of the kin last weekend! First thing I did was mix up hugs batches of glaze in big buckets. Just whites and clears. They have to sit for a day now, so tomorrow I can crack on with glazing. I did paint some Botz ready mixed…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Friday’s blog a private peek, right? Well, washing machine head in full spin today! Just cannot seem to settle. All the rationalizing which I am usually good at, is not helping today. So I’ll just accept that this is how it is at this moment, that it is quite understandable really, given everything that is going on, or not going on for that matter, and that one thing at least IS for certain: THIS…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Thursday’s blog is always blue, right? How about a last minute Christmas card using one of our fab Fresh Cut dies. The one with the pair of deer? There are two in this set. Really lovely: one with deer and one with doves. Peace man… Let’s do a little project and a last minute bloggy offer on the pair. How about half price?! Buy one get the other one free?! Found a scrap of…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Good to have your company again. Just came out of the Live SHAC Shac, and am heading over to my parents with their Christmas Shopping. Bit early I know, but yesterday evening was the closest delivery slot to Christmas I could get. Blimey! We will have eaten it all by the 24th!!! I made a good start on it yesterday evening anyway; had to make room in the freezer!! Milk’s good for you, right?…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Are the days whizzing by, or is it just me? No sooner have I sung Rise & Shine!!! out of the bedroom window at 6am (the neighbours love me xxx), than it’s already dark again, and I’m knackered! Maybe it’s an age thing. Other than that, things are just peachy. The cats got the snip today. Ahhhhh. Yep, our two little ginger Vikings went on an expedition to Vetland, beyond the forest. The Vet…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Today is a good day. Today is a Güd Day. Correction. Today is an excellent day. It started when I woke up. Had a lovely dream. That’s rare, so I relished it, and was glad to remember it. Slept well too. The kiln had cooled down enough to be able to open it. Perfect. Virgin Load 100% successful. Everything bisque fired beautifully. I mean, it’s only little pots n things, but hey. To make…
