It’s beginning to look… err, taste a lot like Christmas! A festive white-on-white stamped bowl filled with holiday Hershey’s Kisses! Four fun flavors… Mint, Hot Cocoa, Cherry Cordial & Sugar Cookie!

Hard to choose a favorite… but I’m going MINT!!!

Celebrating today with an unadorned aluminum pole… “I find tinsel distracting!”… The Airing of Grievances & Feats of Strength. Here’s hoping you & your family “enjoy” this oh-so-special holiday… and keep an old cassette tape recorder handy just in case!

Looks like another collection of my wheelthrown Christmas Trees have made their way down to Orlando! Thanks for sharing your ever-growing collection with us… and the wonderful “disclaimer” you added at the bottom!!! You’re too funny Anna!

Some of my favorite pottery pieces from my Matthew Metz pottery collection… and a cute handmade Santa from my good friend Nancy. It was Nancy’s “fault” in the first place when she suggested we take a pottery class together so many years ago during a bike ride. And look at me now… collecting pottery & making a LOT of pottery too!!!

What’s better than OREO cookies???…
FUDGE-COVERED OREOs!!!

You gotta love when friends drop-off Christmas gifts and they’re perfect for you!!! I mean… isn’t everything better when it’s covered in fudge?!!! Thank you Tracy… you know me too well.

Christmas is coming… and hopefully today was my last trip to the “pottery” Post Office. Final pottery shipments are on their way for the holidays. Thanks to everyone who purchased online… or contacted me directly for some special orders & “secret” shopping! Hopefully your pottery will arrive in time & in one piece… to bringing joy to everyone on the other end!!!

More trees and the forest is GROWING!!!
Keith & Julie added a few more Christmas Trees to their collection this year. Beautiful holiday grouping of my wheelthrown trees… and their mirror in the back sure doesn’t hurt any either!

Hard to believe that Christmas is just a week away.! Thanks to everyone who has been doing some great pottery shopping for the lucky people on their gift lists. We’re quickly running out of shipping time… but my Holiday Home Show shelves are still up just in case any locals need some last-minute gifts! If you need to do some shopping, send me a quick email to set-up a time! – gary@firewhenreadypottery.com

And in the meantime, I guess I better start getting my act together with some gift shopping of my own!

It’s so nice to see that my ceramic Christmas Trees are starting to show-up at their new forever homes! And becoming part of the holiday display… like this beautiful set-up that Sharon has going on! And let me just say…. I’m kind of enamored by that groovy retro ceramic Christmas “tree” with the mini ornaments. Sharon… we need the backstory about that wonderful tree!

Guess what?… I have some extra Christmas Trees!

A few left over form this weekend’s MUD & METAL Holiday Home Show… as well as a few I secretly kept back in reserve just for this pop-up online holiday sale!

So, tomorrow evening (Monday) at 7:00pm CST, I will post all of these handmade ceramic Christmas Trees in a Facebook Photo Album to my Fire When Ready Pottery Facebook page. At that time, the first person to write “MINE” in the Comments section of each photo will get the tree! Very simple, very old school. Hopefully they will all be shipped and arrive in time for Christmas!

No calling dibs now! No buying from this list.
This “preview” is just to give you a little planning headstart & to whet your holiday whistle! They will all be posted in order… which is also from smallest to tallest.

Reminder… the only online shopping for these twenty-five Christmas Trees will be on my Fire When Ready Pottery Facebook page… starting tomorrow night at 7:00pm CST.
