So excited to add two new Cory McCrory ornaments to my Christmas tree this year! Such an adorable addition to my handmade ornament collection! Cory makes amazing pieces handbuilt with paper clay, great textures, fun colors… and always a dash of whimsy!!! I mean… who doesn’t need a chicken and a bunny on their tree?!

And they’re BELLS too!!! That Cory McCrory thinks of everything!!!

Always fun to see one of my students wielding her DiamondCore Tools in class! Like last night when Darcy was carving cool starburst patterns on some cylinder cups… soon to be filled with wax for some beautiful candles!

Looks like my friend Pam is making her Monday a little better with the new mug she picked up this weekend at my Holiday Home Show! Celebrating a little Mugshot Monday with fresh coffee in her new mug! Thanks for sharing your new morning ritual Pam!

A very special THANK YOU to everyone who came out to my second Holiday Home Show MUD & METAL this weekend. We had a lot of fun this weekend helping people with their holiday shopping… whether for those on their list… or for themselves!!!

And if you’re local & missed out on the fun, you can still come over to do some holiday shopping if you shoot me an email to set-up a time!

And here’s a little of “the metal” from MUD & METAL.
Some of Amy Taylor’s beautiful hinged silver jewelry with cool gemstones. We’ve got plenty of pottery & jewelry for everyone on your holiday shopping list today… including yourself!!! We’re open until 6:00pm… and bring a friend!

Kickin’ off Day Two of MUD & METAL : My Second Holiday Home Show with plenty of textures for everyone!!! We’re open until 6:00pm today… c’mon by! Even if it’s just to hang-out on my sofa!

A beautiful start to a sunny Sunday morning. Chilly with a bit of a breeze, with a nice splash of minimal clouds in the right place at the right time. And now it’s time to start getting ready for Day Two of MUD & METAL : My Second Holiday Home Show!

Tomorrow’s the big day! The kick-off of this weekend’s MUD & METAL Holiday Home Show! We’re open Saturday & Sunday from 10:00am-6:00pm with plenty of pottery & jewelry for everyone on your holiday gift list. Swing by to do a little holiday shopping, to enjoy some holiday cheer… or to just sit on my comfy sofa to hang out with us for awhile! Remember, we’re staying safe with face masks & social-distancing even if you’re vaccinated!

A few more trees, a few more photos! These colorful Christmas Trees are all ready for this weekend’s HOLIDAY HOME SHOW… Saturday & Sunday from 10:00am-6:00pm. I only made a “few” to see if anybody out there even likes them?! I think they’re pretty groovy… and wouldn’t mind showing them all off on my own fireplace mantel if I had to!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas… everywhere you go!

Including my second HOLIDAY HOME SHOW this weekend with the “Big Debut” of my new “forest” of ceramic Christmas Trees! They’re fresh out of the kiln and ready to head-off to their forever homes for the holidays! There’s a limited quantity… and the holidays are coming soon!!!
