This weekend… MUD & METAL : A Collaborative Holiday Home Show! Be sure to swing by with some friends to do some of your holiday shopping. One-of-a-kind handmade gifts are always appreciated. There will be plenty of pottery in every room, Amy’s jewelry & more pottery in the dining room, food & drink in the kitchen, and again the “Tired Of Shlepping Sale” on the back porch! I’ve been replenishing shelves… and even shlepping more to the back!

A good sign to start the day… my favorite 4-letter word!!!

Looks like Tracy’s sister Lisa has set-up her collection of Christmas Trees for the holidays… and I’m pretty honored to be part of her festive display! There are a lot more ceramic Christmas Trees coming out of the kiln soon… so I think everyone should have a festive display like Lisa!!!

Glazed, loaded & ready to go! Just need to shut the lid, cross my fingers & turn the kiln on! A big batch of glazed Christmas Trees coming soon for this weekend’s Second Holiday Home Show!!!

Glazing is going well… just a few more trees to glaze before loading the kiln tonight! If everything goes well, these will all be out of the kiln & ready for this weekend’s MUD & METAL SHOW… My Second Holiday Home Show!

Celebrating a little Texture Tuesday with some colorful bowls… with a bit of textured stamping! Most of these will be available this weekend at my Second Holiday Home Show!

Just a few ceramic Christmas trees to get some glaze on! Getting ready for a full “Christmas Tree Farm” this weekend at my Second Holiday Home Show! But first I need to get these glazed and back into another kiln so they are fired & done for Saturday & Sunday at my place!

A bit chilly & a bit cloudy… but eventually the sunrise made its morning appearance. Lighting the sky with pastel colors, then a shock of sun… before going back to basic grayness…which might just be what we get for the rest of the day?!

With my second Holiday Home Show coming quickly this weekend… I’m pretty sure I can squeeze in one more glaze kiln before then! Got some bottoms to wax… and then some glazing to do!!! Quick…

Next weekend I’ll be hosting MUD & METAL : A Collaborative Holiday Home Show at my place. It’s another great chance to mark some people off your holiday gift list. Plenty of pottery for everyone… and beautiful jewelry made by My Talented Friend Amy Taylor! Just a week away… it’s next Saturday & Sunday!
