Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas Day filled with family & friends with plenty of fun & magical moments for everyone. Be festive, be thoughtful, be safe…

Looks like I might need to start baking some holiday cookies to cover this pretty stamped platter?! Unless someone out there would like to do it for me???

Not only did Mary Foster and I have a nice “collaboration” chat, I also left her place with a tasty collection of homemade Christmas cookies!

She paints AND bakes cookies too!!!

Still a good spiral, with a “few” less stamps… but that glaze running situation is kinda perfect! A little more “simple” than the fully-stamped platters. Yet still perfect for the holidays!

Just a little more stamping going on! This class demo platter has been under wraps for awhile… sprayed it a couple times… and finally did a little stamping & texturing. It’s always amazing to me to see what just ONE stamp can do to plain platter!!!

Another pretty green platter fresh out of the kiln. A beautiful green glaze that highlights the stamped patterns & textures, as well as the concentric circles in the center… an ever-so-slight diversion from my typical spiral-addiction!!!

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 platter of fun… on a fun platter!
Thanks to Beth for sharing this glamour shot of her antipasto appetizer plate from her festive Thanksgiving celebration. So glad my stamped platter got to enhance this masterpiece of yumminess!

After a fun day at MAURIE’S SUGAR SHOPPE last Wednesday, I came home with a bunch of “sweet” snacks for myself & to share… caramel apples, chocolate fudge, caramel bites, FrankenPops, and more! Although some of them didn’t even make it halfway home!

I mean, homemade candy from Maurie’s makes for a great late-night road trip snack… burp!!!

One of my favorite sets of dinner plates… gently drying in the dish drainer. So good to see that my pottery is actually getting used out there! Too often people think that handmade pottery is too “fragile” to use… but it’s NOT!!! It’s meant to be used & loved every day… even run through the dishwasher!
