Pottery. Photography. And All Things Handmade.
2020 has sucked. It has really sucked. I lost my mom in June. Lost my mother in-law in September.

My admin tool bar does not appear at the top of my blog when I'm logged in on my Apple computer nor does the action bar located bottom right of my screen.

Both of us in the house through the week has taken some getting used to. I think we will survive.... Continue Reading →
Hello from the blustery and snowy arctic tundra! Okay. Maybe not THE arctic tundra but from my back porch. Brrrr! Though it is winter, I have been playing in the mud inside where it is warm. I am looking forward to sharing with you my latest clay projects. Happy Friday!!!
I don’t know if it was just me or what but this holiday season seemed to fly by so quickly. I think father time is anxious to start a new decade! From our house to yours, Happy New Year!
