Just a “few” textured & soda-fired tiles on my condo wall. If you’ve ever been to my “Holiday Home Show” you’ve already seen ‘em, touched ‘em, loved ‘em… just a couple thousand tile squares!
Perfect to celebrate NATIONAL TILE DAY today!

Just a “few” textured & soda-fired tiles on my condo wall. If you’ve ever been to my “Holiday Home Show” you’ve already seen ‘em, touched ‘em, loved ‘em… just a couple thousand tile squares!
Perfect to celebrate NATIONAL TILE DAY today!

Just some fun soda-fired colors to brighten this gray & dreary Thursday afternoon. Enjoy!





Enjoying the heat of the oven yesterday as I baked a batch of brownies to share with friends!
I figured a dinner party with friends can always use some homemade brownies…
and the hostess “might just” get to keep the bowl too!!!



Looks like my cousin Kim has created a nice “constellation” of textured wall discs in her dining room. Different sizes & different textures all coming together into one art installation. Thanks for sharing Kim!




Kickin’ it off with my first Mugshot Monday of the NEW YEAR!!!
All the way from Nova Scotia where this one landed to live with the rest of Shannon’s mug collection! Looking great out in the Canadian Wilderness!

While the Elves might not be “Elfin’ on the Shelfin” anymore… they are enjoying a cozy night inside. As we get more snow tonight, looks like Eric’s elf is enjoying a warm cup… and his puppy is enjoying the fireplace! Both smart choices. Thanks for sharing Eric!

Looks like Rhonda is enjoying a quiet moment on a rainy December day…
accompanied by some cute little guy stewing in her morning coffee
in her new holiday trees mug!???

Since soda-firing can be so random… and one side of a piece can look totally different than the other side… most of the photos posted for my ONLINE HOLIDAY SHOW will have an inset photo so you can see both sides! Dimensions, volume & price will be on the photos too! This mug is just a great dramatic example!!!

Looks like Beth is enjoying a little MUGSHOT MONDAY
with the new holiday mug she picked up this weekend at my Second Holiday Home Show

There are only a couple holiday mugs left. So I think we might have time
for a little Facebook online sale… most likely tomorrow!!!
Not only did I leave Thanksgiving with a bunch of leftovers… but I got a bunch of homegrown eggs as well. Their backyard chickens are still working hard producing eggs. Thanks Kelly for sending some home with me!
