Yesterday however, started out with a lot of clouds… but with an opening for sunrise potential. A sliver of color along the horizon, striking at first… and soon enough, our only hope for a sunrise as the clouds moved in!

Not much of a sunrise today. Just a lot of clouds & wind… and GRAY.
Not so pretty, unless you’re into neutrals. Personally, I prefer a bit more COLOR!!!
ART IN THE GARDEN
A wonderful grassroots art fair thrown together by a bunch of talented friends & artists. So much fun to have a smaller event that gives everyone time to chat, hang out and really get to see everything! Plus, several of the artists are working on collaboration projects with each other… an opportunity to work together and mix medias that don’t always get to play together! So much fun to see what everyone comes up with. We hope you can join us this weekend, September 7th & 8th from 10:00am-5:00pm in Glenview, Illinois.

After a bit of detailing with colored flashing slips, these ornaments are now drying
and ready for a bisque kiln. They will then be carefully propped-up on a little
handmade tripods in the soda kiln.
EVEN CUTER IN COLOR!!!
Cory McCrory is rockin’ it for our collaboration coming together this weekend
at ART IN THE GARDEN this Saturday & Sunday in Glenview, Illinois!
And it looks like someone else had been busy too… new shelves are already going up in the Wheel C classroom… looks like we’ll actually have new shelves ready when the new class session starts next week at Lillstreet!
Cory’s pulling it all together and making things happen!!! One step closer
to our collaboration coming together for ART IN THE GARDEN this weekend!!!
Looks like Cory McCrory has yet another trick up her sleeve… as if she weren’t busy enough… she’s “upping” the cute factor of our collaboration project and pushing it over the top!!! Can’t wait to see where this takes us…
And now it looks like I have some more trimming to do… a LOT of trimming…
but that’s the easy part. For after trimming… comes handles!!!
