I just unloaded and loaded another bisque kiln this morning. I'll be glazing and glaze firing them hopefully this weekend, and posting them next week. I also joined a pottery group on facebook this morning, http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Pottery/111956652150198 which looks like a great way for potters and pottery lovers to connect. More pieces and pictures coming soon.. <3

In Other News

Not much to do with pottery, but being a nature lover I thought this deserved a post. Some pictures from my Mama's garden. Some beautiful tomatoes and a single jalapeno (my favorite). 

Can't wait till the whole garden's full... <3

Need Sleep

Woke up bright and early this morning to get some pieces trimmed. I just didn't have the motivation to do any of it last night, although now I really wish I had. One thing I will say about trimming while your tired is that it bumps up the possiblity that you'll destroy something of importance, i.e. a beautiful berry bowl. Anyway, my other pieces that DID survive are looking good. I'll update with some pictures of "pieces in progress" soon.

New Work

Took a lot of new photos of my most recent work yesterday thanks to my amazing boyfriend who taught me some quick tips about photography. Also went on the wheel for a while, where after numerous trys and failures, finally made some new pieces. I haven't been on the wheel in a while because of all the shows I had lined up, so it took me a minute to get back into the groove. This is just a sample of what I accomplished. You can find the rest of the pictures on my flickr page at the bottom, or check out what's for sale on my etsy page to the right..

A Revamped Etsy

So clearly I'm not the best at this blogging situation, but I promise to start trying to keep this thing up to date starting now. The craft fairs have slowed down thankfully. Although they're fun, they're a lot of work! While waiting for my next one on July 18th in Nyack, I've been really busy trying to get things set up and keep them up to date on my Etsy page.  Just listed some new items on Etsy thehoneypotshop.etsy.com and on flickr. I've also recently put some of my pieces in a wonderful store in Nyack called The Klay Gallery!

All of this is very exciting and motivating! None of it's easy, but it's all worth it. Check out the new Etsy page. Hope you enjoy!

New Year, New Season

Hi Everyone! It's a brand new year, which means time for some new craft shows and some new pieces! I'm proud to announce a full schedule of shows this year, as well as some brand new functional a decorative pieces I've created. It's going to be a busy and fun filled season, hopefully with very little rain and huge turnouts at events! (always hope for the best) My first show of the new year will be held at Wayne Valley High School in Wayne, New Jersey on March 14th from 10-5. Details of the event will be posted on my calendar (located on the right hand side of this page) within the next few days, and new pieces will be up on my new and improved etsy site, thehoneypotshop.etsy.com, very soon as well. I'm extremely excited to get started, and I hope to either see you at a show or visiting my online shop! Check back soon for all the updates! <3
