All set-up… ready for Day Two of the NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR. Re-stocked & ready… bring it on! C’mon out to Sandwich for our stop of the pottery tour!






Ginkgo greetings from Sandwich! Looks like the rain moved through overnight leaving us with magical morning moments like these! Looks like clear skies for Day Two of the NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR. We’re all opening our tents & replenishing our shelves here in Sandwich. C’mon by… we’re open again today from 10:00am-4:00pm!



I mean… while you’re in a town named Sandwich… it seemed too obvious… ‘cuz you know how I love a good theme!!!


And the NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR has officially begun! The Sandwich stop of the tour is ready to go! We’ve got plenty of pots for everyone…


Time to put out some pots… just a couple hours until we open for the NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR!!!
So… did you hear that they’re talking about adding a new town just east of Sandwich??? They’re talking about calling it Baloney. So if this all comes together, when you travel west on I-34, you would go through Plano-Baloney-Sandwich!!!


Remember, the NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR begins tomorrow at 10:00am… and I’ll be at the Sandwich location! For full details, check-out the website… www.northernilpotterytour.com

When your car is packed to the brim with pots, pots & more pots… so the tent frame & shelving uprights need to go on top! Yep, I look like the Beverly Hillbillies headed to an art fair… just need a rocking chair on top?!

I know Sandwich is a long ways out there… so I’m offering up a little “SANDWICH STIMULUS” since that has seemed like the thing to do lately. So for the FIRST TEN customers who stop by the Sandwich location of the NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR and purchase one of my pieces… they’ll get five dollars of free “stimulus” cash to put towards their gas tank!!! Free money to soften the blow the next time you’re at the pump!!!

We’re now just 40-hours away from the kick-off of NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR… not that I’m counting… but just a quick reminder, and a fun map to help you find all of the Pottery Tour locations! From west to east the tour would be Sandwich, Aurora, Villa Park & Chicago. I will be at the Sandwich location at my friend Cory McCrory’s studio, along with four other talented potters!
