Saturday Share: Filled with Fabulous Makes
Hello hello! Grace here
Welcome to another Saturday Share! Gosh, they swing around quickly. I’m currently writing this whilst on an Alaska Airlines flight to the West Coast. Gotta love a middle seat… 😅
As many of you know, Mum had surgery this week, so this Sunday’s Clarity TV show has been cancelled, along with the SHAC on Monday. I just wanted to mention it again here in case anyone missed the announcement. The good news is she’s doing really well! Now she just needs plenty of time to rest and heal.
Before we dive into this week’s gallery, I also wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who’s taken advantage of our Club Members Half Price Sale. It’s been wonderful to see so many of you treating yourselves (and each other!) to some crafty goodies.
With that said, I wanted to gently remind everyone again that our sales are a little different to our usual day-to-day orders. We keep products available wherever possible, even if that means making more once the sale is underway. Rather than marking products as unavailable, our team gets busy behind the scenes making, picking, packing and preparing your orders by hand.
The result? Lots more bargains for you… but sometimes a little more waiting too! If you’re still waiting for your parcel, thank you so much for your patience. We’re a small family-run business, and during a sale like this every member of the team is working incredibly hard to get orders out as quickly as possible. Depending on what you’ve ordered, it can sometimes take three weeks or more before everything is ready to leave us – but we promise the team is working through them as fast as we can.
Now then… let’s take a little pause from the hustle and bustle and enjoy this week’s wonderful collection of artwork. As always, you’ve made choosing just a handful incredibly difficult! Grab that cup of whatever soothes your soul and enjoy these fab makes with me!

Thank you Grace for another wonderful selection this week, some very beautiful artwork.
Pleased to hear your Mum is doing well & is resting at home.
I am sure many of us wish her a speedy recovery & send a big hug to her.

Good morning, beautiful collection of work as usual. Glad your mum is recovering and resting – her nurse is doing a good job. What another quick week. Have a good weekend. Xx
Thanks for the share of beautiful, colourful art: great choice as always.
Thanks too for the positive update on your mum’s post op progress. Srangely, I had lunch yesterday with an 80 year old friend who had her gallbladder removed (keyhole surgery) on the 23rd – just 8 days ago. Amazing, but she also has to be reminded to be patient and take things easy to allow her body to repair on the inside.
Safe trip, Grace.
Another wonderful selection, thank you Grace.
Pleased to hear your Mum is doing well and resting. For a busy person it can be frustrating doing nothing, but do it right and it has benefits. Sending good wishes to her for a speedy recovery.
Where has this year gone? I can’t believe it’s August already. Must get on with completing the backlog of unfinished workshop projects which I am enjoying so far. Just need a few more hours in the day.
Have a good weekend.
Beautiful artwork- very inspiring!
Wishing Barbara a speedy recovery!
Thank you for the ‘share’,Grace!
Hi Grace, as you said, another week flown by so quickly. I am glad to hear that Barbara’s op was successful & that she is taking it steady. Hopefully doing as she is told by Nurse Dave !!
There are some wonderful pieces you have chosen to share with us today, a real source of inspiration to us all.
We also have the August challenge to look at whilst Barbara is resting so plenty to keep us occupied.
A big shout out to Clarity Team busy picking & packing our orders in this heat especially as there are now special offers on the ingredients of the August Challenge.
No doubt by now you have reached your destination Grace, so enjoy the weekend
Take care everyone xx
Je souhaite de tous mes voeux un bon rétablissement à Barbara et qu’elle nous rejoigne en bonne santé
Thank you for lovely crafting pieces again this week. So glad Barbara is recovering well in excellent hands with nurse Dave. Have a lovely weekend everyone x
Beautiful artwork and Blog Grace so pleased your Mum is on road to recovery and I’m sure lovely Dave is looking after her and making her rest I know how hard it is sometimes to switch off and rest. Xx
Hi Grace, I was thrilled to see my collage on your blog this week, thank you. My faff-ometer was turned up to the max when doing it, but I enjoyed the process. Hopefully I’ll be able to make quicker decisions for my next one. 😂
I love all the artwork you’ve chosen, everyone is so talented! Pippa’s flower quartet is exquisite.
Best wishes to your Mum for a speedy recovery. Enjoy your time on the west coast.
