Plain pumpkins too!!!
Handmade & soda-fired… the squirrels won’t eat these pumpkins on your porch!!!

While some of these Ghouls are classics… they’re also Limited Editions! So there are no more Mummies, Frankensteins or Witches. Pumpkins will be around for years to come… and tomorrow night I’ll be selling off some of the “newer” Ghouls only on my Facebook pottery page with my “GHOULS & PUMPKINS SALE.” If you’re looking to start your collection, or add a few more characters to your Ghouls Collection, there will be Scarecrows from this year, plus Werewolves, Vampire Bats, Pirates, Little Red Devils & a few different Pumpkins! Some are more “limited” than others… like the Werewolves as there are only TWO of them left!!!

“GHOULS & PUMPKINS SALE” – Wednesday, October 18th at 7:00pm CST

The Ghouls are popping up everywhere! Another set making their spooky debut at Tracy’s place! She’s got a pretty-sweet collection… and I’m loving them on the grassy-raffia base!

And did you miss out on collecting The Ghouls???
There “just might be” another chance to grab a couple of them this coming Wednesday evening on my pottery Facebook page! More details coming soon…

Last night we continued BIRTHDAY WEEK with a yummy dinner at Macello on the Near West Side of Chicago. So much fun celebrating & eating with my friend Nancy… who has the same birthday as me!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US!!!

Special THANKS… burp… to Jeni’s Ice Creams for offering free ice cream for your birthday celebration!!! You get a free TRIO of flavors!!! So Wednesday night I did… burp… a couple times! As no one ever said you’re limited to stopping at just ONE Jeni’s location!!!… burp!

So the past couple days have been great… and we’re not done yet! It’s officially BIRTHDAY WEEK!!! Thanks so much to everyone for their great birthday wishes. You sure know how to make a guy smile!!! Love you all. Thanks again… and let’s keep the party going!!!

It’s a spooky Friday the 13th night… and it looks like there are more ghouls coming out to play! Yep, another line-up of my Halloween characters hanging out on a bookshelf! Not quite the “full” Ghouls Collection… but quite a few nonetheless! They’re all made as a Limited Edition. And when the new “yearly” character is gone, they’re gone for good. But… there “might just be” a little bit of a “Ghouls & Pumpkins Sale” only on my pottery Facebook page next week of those characters still in my inventory!!! More details coming… Pirates & Devils & Scarecrows, oh my.

It’s the first chilly Saturday night of October… and the Ghouls are coming out to party!!! Here’s an almost complete collection sparkling with some festive Halloween lights… missing just a couple Ghouls from the party! Thanks for sharing Chris!

One of the cutest parts of ART IN THE BARN… are the kids who stopped by my booth and actually got to purchase some art for themselves!!! Yes, I make cute little Halloween necklaces for the kids… pumpkins, candy corns, ghosts, skulls & eyeballs! And the “marketing scheme” is that if they are 10-years old or younger, and paying for themselves, the necklaces are just one dollar. But if you’re an adult… FIVE dollars! So it encourages the littler kids (with the help of their parents) to engage in their first art purchase! They do the transaction, they get their change back, they get a shopping bag… they get to pick a piece of art & appreciate their first art purchase!!! So much better than the parents yelling at them all day not to touch anything at the art fair!!!

Time to toast some marshmallows! Today is NATIONAL S’MORES DAY!!! And you know how I love to “celebrate “ these holidays! But this time I mixed it up a bit… switching out the milk chocolate bar for a dark chocolate peanut butter cup. I “think” it was pretty good… I might need to “try it again” to really decide?!!

Yep… yummy, melty gooeyness!!!
