Cute little flowers in a cute little vase!
And don’t forget… tiny vases “need” tiny stamps!!! Thanks for sharing Kristy!


Kicking off a beautiful Spring morning with a vase full of aromatic lilac blooms.
Such a shame that these beauties are so short-lived… as are most Spring flowers!






Wall pocket vases coming together… gently trimmed, stamped & squished!
Well, maybe “gently ovalized” would be a better phrase. Regardless…
these now just need some accents of colored slip before they start drying completely!


With warrantied replacement parts & pieces… I’m back up & running with my favorite Giffin Grip! So much fun & so much quicker… especially when trimming these little cutie-patooties mini vases!!!






Another warm Spring day… and it looks like little Theo may have found the first dandelion of the season! Luckily, he had the perfect little vase to put it in!!! Thanks for sharing Allyn!


Kicked-off my day by throwing more than ten pieces before 10:00am.
This time it was a lot of fun throwing little minis off-the-hump.


Morning mosaic time… with a quick glimpse at the bricolage mural on the front of Lillstreet Art Center. With lots of fun “pieces & parts” mixed in throughout… including one very recognizable stamped vase near the bottom corner!




Hope you’ve all had a wonderful day. Here’s a little vintage Valentine fun from my friends in Peoria. Celebrating with one of my early pieces… one of the largest vases I was so excited to finally make on the wheel. And a single row of fairly tentative stamping round the edge… kinda hidden by the glaze. But nonetheless… a nice “vintage” vase for special a Valentine’s Day!!!

Gotta love when the sun comes streaming in… and a prism rainbow lands perfectly on some vases on the shelves in my dining room! So much fun… makes me think it’s warm & sunny outside?… well, one out of two ain’t bad!!!

During these dreary winter days of the New Year… a little pop of floral color can help brighten the day! Even if it’s just a couple blooms in a couple cutie-patootie bud vases! Thanks for sharing your cheery collection Tiffany!
