Footballs

They say out of necessity comes creativity...and, well...TA-DA! My husband and I were having people over to watch a game and I needed something cute to serve popcorn, nuts and chex mix. We went out to my studio to brainstorm and thanks to my husband (this is one idea I can't take credit for) I crafted football bowls! This particular picture isn't that great, but you get the idea :)

Square Ruffle Dish

Varying in size, these are great for holding beverage napkins, crackers, or they can even be used as a baked brie dish...so versatile!

Mississippi Platters (small)

I love these!!!

I have marked some of these for particular cities with inlaid glass.

Perfect for a small serving piece or large spoon rest and anything else you can imagine!

Depending on size and detail $25-40

Large pieces

Here are some pictures of a few pieces I recently did for a friend.

These are my small ruffle bowls $8-$12 (depending on finished size)

These are in a new glaze I just love!

Large serving bowl $50-$60

Large serving platter $40-$50.

a trip to the supply co...

This morning I took 2 friends to my supplier to pick out new glazes. We had so much fun. One picked out a glaze for dinnerware and the other for some serving pieces. I love to do custom glazes. All that means is: I take you with me to pick out a specific color. Your name goes on the glaze when I get back, and anytime you order a piece or someone else orders a present for you, I have a color I know you will love! It's a great idea for people who like pottery, but can't quite find the right color in a store. It also helps certain people...husbands...with Christmas and birthday shopping!
While I was there, I picked up 10 new colors, too! Check back the end of the week for pictures of my new Mississippi platter and color samples.

Upcoming Event...

Mark your calendars for this years Neshoba County Fair Arts and Crafts Show. Held the first Saturday of the fair, July 25th, I am excited to announce I will have a booth this year! Just look for a sage green tent on Founders Square filled with lots of cool pottery and maybe even a few paintings!
