Viola.....Violas

This is a picture of one of my hanging planters (15$). The violas are just so profuse right not, it is hard to stop looking at them. I get this effect by replacing the potting soil every season, and putting in some fertilizer. This pot is going to look great in my booth at the Lithia Artisans Market in Ashland Oregon this weekend.

I had a blast at my seconds sale last weekend, I wish that I could do it every weekend. One customer was able to buy 17 items for 54 dollars, which I was shockingly impressed with! I even surprised myself, by picking out some of my own pottery, to keep for myself! I got 5 tricked out rice bowls that I am never going to make again, I was quit tickled to find these hiding in a box.

Yard Art Galore!


One of my long time customers from Portland sent me this photo of her growing collection of my birdhouses and flowers. She put the birdhouses on copper pipe to get them up high. People have been telling me for years that they have like 10 of them in their yard, which I cannot imagine they are telling me the truth, but finally here is the evidence.

Ashland Seconds Sale


Hello, I will be having my pottery 2nds sale on Saturday May 23 at the Lithia Artisan's Market 10:00 to 6:00, in Ashland, behind the plaza, on the creek.
I have had a number of bad firings that have created some very "rustic" looking pottery, but it will all be to your advantage, as you may not even be able to figure out what I think is wrong with it! I have seconds of the mini-birhouses, birdhouses, flowers, discontinued stuff, experiments. I will also have my regular, non screwed up pottery (so called), as a contrast to the vast and alarming price difference. I want to get rid of this stuff, so it will be priced to move.
Thanks to all who stop by and visit our market, to buy things or just to take in the wonderful feeling of the place.
