Happy New Year!
I hope you all had a safe and peaceful New Years Eve.
As one door closes, another opens and a magical and crafty door has opened for me in a very big way............ in 2015 I made a massive decision to give up my job of nearly 14 years and follow my dream of working in the craft industry.
I am very lucky to have worked for such a great company for nearly 14 years - a massive part of my adult life, an extended family - so many memories that will last forever...........
But a new door has opened and on Monday 4th January 2016 I officially start work at one of the top businesses in the craft industry - Claritystamp Limited. Clarity is run by my very good friends Barbara and Dave and I am very lucky to have been given the opportunity to work alongside them both.
Clarity is known for top quality products and in the past 2 years the product range has increased to include stencils and the amazing Groovi system. It does not feel like I will be starting a new job as I know all of the staff already - it will be just like joining another family..........
The Clarity diary for 2016 is crammed full of so many exciting things and I can't wait to share!!!!!!!!
My new role will see me have many heads just like Worzel Gummidge! (Am I showing my age?)
Me on a good day!
To list a few of my many heads - Operations Manager, Trade Account Manager, Show Planner, TV Demonstrator...........
A song that seems to sum up the year ahead from my favourite artist - Barbra Streisand
On a clear day
Rise and look around you
And you'll see who you are
On a clear day
How it will astound you
That the glow of your being
Outshines every star
You'll feel part of every mountain sea and shore
You can hear
From far and near
A word you've never, never heard before...
And on a clear day...On a clear day...
You can see forever...
And ever...
And ever...
And ever more. . .
I will try and keep my Blog more up to date (fingers crossed).
Wishing you all a wonderful, safe, happy, healthy and crafty New Year

ReplyDeleteBest wishes Paul as you begin this new stage in your journey through life. Joining a new family seems a perfect analogy for your move to Clarity. I'm sure you will be brilliant in your new roles. I use Worzels' many heads with my class eg. put your thinking head on. Looking forward to seeing your input over the coming year, Jeanette xxx
