Coming soon… another HOLIDAY HOME SHOW for those who need to do a little last-minute holiday shopping! I’m restocking the pottery shelves & prepping for another go-round. And this time I will also have a jeweler friend of mine joining me. Rhonda Gurgone makes her jewelry out of antique buttons from around the world. And she knows the history of every button… most of them over a hundred years old!!! So mark your calendars… and start making your holiday gift shopping lists!

Looks like Emily has been knitting up some much needed warmth these days!!!
Glad my yarn bowl can be there to help… thanks for the photo Emily!

Looks like “someone” (me) might have forgotten to move the pumpkins & gourds before the snowfall??? Looks they might live here for awhile now?… oh well !!!

Looks like Matthew & Kristy are kicking off the first December night with a beautiful cranberry martini… along with one of my little shot glasses. Great colors, great composition. But it’s really the gleam of light in the martin glass shadow that I’m totally diggin’!!!

The Lillstreet Holiday Show will be this Friday night… December 5th from 5:00pm-8:00pm.
I’m planning on being in my studio all night… with a wide range of HANDMADE MUGS
for your holiday gift shopping. So be sure to stop by Friday night…
as we’re also celebrating a MUGSHOT MONDAY today!

And now that we’re all snow-covered…
I thought it might be appropriate to bring white-covered OREOs
as a snack for my co-workers today!

Kicking off December with the first ornament on my Advent Calendar.
Trying something new this time… starting at the top with the shiny gold star!!!
Why not start with something bright on a dark & dreary December morning?!

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!

But I wish I had leftovers of this too!!! Looks like Rosene baked a beautiful pumpkin pie in one of my stamped pie plates for their Thanksgiving celebration. Thanks for sharing… even if it is just a photo, and not a piece of pie!!!
