....oops!...time for a catch-up!

Well its been a short while since i last posted, there has been so much going on its been hard to find the time to eat...never mind keeping up with the blog!

Over the next few days i'll be sticking pictures from our adventures from the last month for you to have a look. 'Punkeroo is still going well, we're steadily spreading the word around coventry, rugby and the midlands...still working on the world domination though!

We have lots of good news to share...We've heard from the punkeroo's (more from them later) and have finally secured our workshop at the canal basin- we hope to have things up and running in the new year...if you'd like to pop along to the opening day drop us a line.

We'll also be at the coventry craft fair, at the canal basin on sunday 14th december, apparently they'll be lots of other stalls there, why not pop along and find some pressies for christmas...only 30 days to go!

Talking of christmas, lisa and i spotted a very sorry sight in our garden today, how many of you have been lured into buying a 'Living' christmas tree?..we were...thinking that next year we'd have a bigger, lusher and still living tree......unfortunaltly what we seem to have ended up with is a stick with a few (very few) green spikeys attached...see what you think

Slip casting for beginners!

We thought it might be a good idea to show how we begin to make some of the pieces that you can find at YouPunkeroo and LittlePunkeroo.

We have started with 'A beginners guide to slipcasting' but over the next few months will be adding more! Keep checking back for new tutorials. You'll find the first one at the following link..enjoy!

Punkeroo's on tour!!!

...It came as something of a surprise to lisa and I when we woke up this morning to find the 'Punkeroo's gone....they did leave us the following short note of explanation though:

...dear joab and lisa

after some careful thought we've decided that there just isn't enough excitement in rugby for us, its time we spread our wings, let the wind whistle through our matted locks and discovered what the world can offer...

the Punkeroo's

PS) We've borrowed the car

So i guess we'll be keeping you up to date with their adventures!

....Some new photo's

As well as experimenting with the new Blog we've been looking at different ways of sharing photo's. Some kind and clever person suggested we try Flickr. To start off with we've just experimented with a few pictures..... it looks quite good i think. Click on the link below to have a look

A new (Blog) Beginning!!!

Well

the day has finally come....we've outgrown the space we had on the website and have had to find more spacious e-accomodation!!!

We'll be trying to keep you up to date with the various adventures of 'Punkeroo around the midlands and hopefully you'll all be getting in touch to let us know what you think. One of our current thoughts for the coming year was about trying to gather crafty folks together for the day one day next summer.... seems a little strange to be thinking of next summer already :-(

So if you have a craft you'd like to share, get in touch and we'll add you to the list...

take care for now

Joab (and lisa)
