Introducing the Candidate of Crafty Change Margot Potter

Promo Spot Margot Potter

Sweeping cinematic music begins.

Pan on image of Margot Potter looking wistful amongst the magnolia blossoms followed by a photo montage and a video excerpt of Margot looking introspective and thoughtful on a large stairway to an official looking building.

Announcer’s Voice:
Tired of lifestyle experts who make you feel like a total spaz?

Wondering why your muse is no longer amused?

Has your creative fire sputtered out like a dollar store tea light in a hurricane?

Are you stuck in a crafty funk of funkitudinous proportions?

Looking for a leader who can bring you change you can bedazzle and hope of a brighter glitter glue, a leader who can help you turn your craptastic crafts into creative fertilizer?

The kind of crafty genius who can turn a dumpster find into a tantilizing treasure?

Impatient, Irreverent, Imperfect and Impetuous, Margot Potter is a design expert for the rest of us.

Forget those craftier than thou candidates, it's time for a crafter who gets your frustrations, your limitations and your fears. It's time for a crafter who says

View of Margot crafting in her studio.

Margot: "Hey, who cares what it looks like underneath as long as the top looks good."

Announcer: Who reminds you that...

Margot: "There are no mistakes, because that big splodge was intentional. No, really. Okay maybe not but...that's not the point. What was the point? Oh crap, I splodged again!!"

(Music Stops. Crickets.)

Announcer’s Frustrated Voice:

Where were we?

Oh yeah, Margot Potter.

(Music resumes)
Images/Video of Margot looking confident and down to earth.

She's the Guru of Glue, the BQOTU™, a creative dervish, a down to earth design diva and a Rennaissance Woman or a Jill of all Trades.

It depends on which day you ask her.

As for those nagging questions about her experience,

Margot responds with total candor (Margot:) “I’m a quasi marginal pseudo craft industry celebrity...so I've got that going for me.”

And she’s not just a quasi marginal pseudo craft industry celebrity, oh no, she's a quasi marginal pseudo craft industry celebrity...with that certain touch of joie de vivre and je ne sais quoi.

(Insert erudite French music here.)

If you're looking for a lifestyle expert who will help you reach deep inside and find your creative voice and let it sing...really loudly...and perhaps even off key...

Well, look no further, you've found her in The Impatient Crafter™ Margot Potter. The crafty candidate of real change, and not just the kind you can get at the local mini mart.

I’m Margot Potter and I approved this message.

Love the new site - I cannot wait until you teach us more about 'when to glue and when not to glue' to bling and when not to bling'. Life is full of mysteries and I know you will guide us throught these perilous times. From a Blue State to a Swing State Adios.....
