Gusty winds seemingly from all directions this morning?!
It was CRAZY!!!

But crazy fun… I even laughed out loud a couple times.
Feeling like you’re going to be blown over…
or stopped in your tracks with a strong headwind!
So funny… but this sunrise made it all worthwhile!!!

Another sgraffito platter fresh from the kiln! A beautiful cobalt blue glaze with carved sgraffito patterns through black underglaze. Another addition to MY HOLIDAY HOME SHOW!

But there’s only one.. first come, first served!!!

A green sgraffito platter fresh from the kiln… just in time for MY HOLIDAY HOME SHOW with socially-distanced appointments that begin tonight! A beautiful green glaze over black underglaze… and a pretty sweet spiral to boot!!!

So here’s a little photo quickie… the same glazed platter before & after the kiln firing!!! Big difference. Pretty sweet, huh?! Just one of the large platters available at MY HOLIDAY HOME SHOW this week!

Tonight in my Wheelthrowing class I surprised one of my students with some new clay jewelry!! Katie has been in my class for awhile, and has been playing with a lot of marbled clay this session. A few weeks back, she used the scraper to get a thin layer of marbled clay off her bat after removing the pot. She was going to just throw it in the reclaim, but I stopped her and told her she should make “something” out of it. It was such a cool slice of marbled clay. She didn’t feel like using it to make anything… but I did!!!

And Katie LOVED them… and immediately wore them in class!!!

Always great to see these four letters… one last kiln load fired & complete… fresh pots just in time for MY HOLIDAY HOME SHOW! It wasn’t quite cool enough to unload when I arrived, but hopefully it will be cooler after teaching class tonight!Don’t forget, you can still sign-up for a socially-distant & sanitized appointment time slots on my website.

Beautiful fall colored ivy leaves on a beautiful weathered fence.
Perfect for a natural Texture Tuesday!

Another batch of stamped mugs finished & drying. Unfortunately these won’t be done in time for MY HOLIDAY HOME SHOW coming soon… but I am starting to wonder if we might need a mug intervention here?!!!

Just a couple quick mug-shots from my most recent soda kiln. Doing a little cleaning, pricing & prepping for MY HOLIDAY HOME SHOW… where I’ll have over a hundred mugs on the shelves when we start!!! We’re going to be socially-distant, fully masked-up & safe with limited access through appointments & sanitizing measures. I know these are crazy times… but if you find pottery shopping “essential,” please check out my website to sign-up for an appointment time.

Another mug making someone’s morning a little bit better…
making it another Mugshot Monday! Looks like a great way to start. Although I will admit that I don’t drink coffee or tea… but I am totally intrigued by the “whipped” honey??? Who knew that was a thing???
