Still getting ready for tomorrow’s big Holiday Home Show!
Repelnishing shelves. Restocking inventory…
and adding more to the Tired Of Shlepping Sale shelves!
And we’re marking down a LOT of holiday ornaments.
Originally $15, $20 or even $25 each… on sale tomorrow only for $5 each!!!
Snowflakes, gingerbread men, stars, fortune cookies and even some Ho’s!!!
Here’s a quick glimpse of the ornaments I just now put on the back porch…
because I’m just plain tired of shlepping them around!

Need some new holiday ornaments for your tree???
There will be plenty of them available tomorrow at our MUD & METAL event.
Stop by my place between 10:00am-6:00pm tomorrow to do a little shopping,
or just hang out & enjoy the festivities… and the comfort of my couch!

Just a quick heads-up… “The St. Nick’s Day Online Sale” officially closes tomorrow at Noon. Several of the mugs & ornaments have been claimed, but there are still plenty of sweet gifts to be purchased. Consider this your 24-hour reminder!

Simply find the piece you want, then add a Comment on the individual picture in the Photo Album. If you’re the first person to claim it with a simple “MINE. MINE. MINE”… or something similar… you get the mug or ornament. It’s first come, first claimed.

So hurry up… what are you doing here wasting time…
Get on over to the Facebook page and see what’s left. Snatch ’em up quick!!!
Christmas is coming sooner than you think.

A quick layer loaded into a bisque kiln.
Rapid replenishment for my Second Holiday Home Show on Saturday, December 12th.

Thrown & stamped Saturday… Trimmed & handled Sunday… Drying & into a kiln Monday.

Unloading the kiln is always a weird mix of excitement.
A fun treasure hunt to see everything coming out. But kind of a hurry to get it all done. Unloading all of the pots, packing them up, cleaning the kiln, scraping the shelves, re-kiln washing, sweeping up and all of the other “glamorous parts” of the process that no one thinks about. So many of my pieces go straight from the kiln and into a box to get them home.

Pretty excited about the latest batch of spoons & ornaments.
I’ll have time to really look a them later… for now it’s time to clean & scrape!!!

One of my students just stopped by with a sweet treat to make my Glazing Day go better. So festive now with peppermint & ornaments!!! Thank you Catherine.

One of my students has been “bitten” by the holiday ornament bug. Throwing them off the hump & adding a handbuilt top the same way I do. I love when students follow along and try the class demo, embrace it and begin to make it their own. And here she is now making her own batch of beautiful, wheelthrown ornaments. Well done Marni!

Just finishing up another batch of ornaments for my next bisque kiln. They’re stamped, detailed, and accented with colored slips… dried and ready to go!

My latest batch of wheelthrown ornments now have caps & rings. Next up tomorrow… some colored slip accents before bisque firing. Then some “holiday magic” with flashing effects in my upcoming soda kiln. Getting them ready for my Holiday Home Show the weekend before Thanksgiving!
