Coming soon… another HOLIDAY HOME SHOW for those who need to do a little last-minute holiday shopping! I’m restocking the pottery shelves & prepping for another go-round. And this time I will also have a jeweler friend of mine joining me. Rhonda Gurgone makes her jewelry out of antique buttons from around the world. And she knows the history of every button… most of them over a hundred years old!!! So mark your calendars… and start making your holiday gift shopping lists!

The Lillstreet Holiday Show will be this Friday night… December 5th from 5:00pm-8:00pm.
I’m planning on being in my studio all night… with a wide range of HANDMADE MUGS
for your holiday gift shopping. So be sure to stop by Friday night…
as we’re also celebrating a MUGSHOT MONDAY today!

Lillstreet Art Center – Studio 205 West
4401 North Ravenswood, Chicago, IL 60640

You know you had a successful weekend when the dishwasher is full both days with all of the used “hot apple cider mugs!”… yes, I made a special set of mugs just for the Holiday Home Shows… they only come out twice a year!

Such a fun weekend spending time with so many friends, fans, followers & pottery lovers! It’s always great to invite everyone over for a little holiday festivity… and to kick-off the holiday gift shopping season. Thanks for always being so supportive… shopping small & patronizing local artists. Thanks again… you guys rock!!!

So here we are… all refreshed & restocked for Day Two of my HOLIDAY HOME SHOW! The sun is shining in & pottery is gleaming. Perfect conditions for a little holiday shopping today! C’mon over… open now until 6:00pm!

My condo… 1353 West Rosemont #3 , Chicago in the Edgewater neighborhood… between Clark & Broadway two blocks south of Devon. Just look for my green totem pole out front!!!

We’re just a day a way form the start of my HOLIDAY HOME SHOW!!! I’ve been working so hard getting everything ready for this weekend. I can’t wait to have a bunch of friends, customers & pottery lovers stopping by my place for some holiday fun. Whether you’re doing some holiday shopping for friends… or for yourself… or just coming to hang-out on my sofa… we’re open both days from 10:00-6:00pm. I hope you can make it… and bring a bunch of friends!!!

We’re just four days away from MY HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS!!! I’m still getting ready, prepping, pricing & packing the shelves with a LOT of pottery. Yes, I actually install my art fair shelving all around my condo!!! My place gets a little crowded with a LOT to see… so be forewarned… there will be a LOT of visual over-stimulation!!!

Just a week away… my biggest pottery sale of the year!!! With pottery in every room of my condo, there is plenty for everyone… and the perfect chance to start your holiday shopping!!! All decorated for Christmas, food & drink in the kitchen… and the “Tired of Shlepping Sale” on the back porch! Mark your calendars for next Saturday & Sunday!!!

Hard to believe that it’s already November… and more importantly, that my HOLIDAY HOME SHOW is just a couple weeks away!!! Be sure to mark your calendars, start making your holiday shopping list & bring some friends to my place!!! I guarantee there’s a lot to see… I’m not kidding… A LOT!!!

Another “art fair trade”… this time with one of my booth neighbors! Sandy has been next to me for a couple years, and he makes wood turned kitchen utensils like pizza cutters, wine stoppers & ice cream scoops. But it was these sweet little wooden bowls that caught my eye… and came home with me when our “trade” went down at ART IN THE BARN.
