Thank you...

I am thankful for:
The breath I take every day
The health, family and friends and roof above our head.
The sun that rises every morning and sets every night.
The food that I found when I opened the fridge.
The safety feeling to be able to walk to the park, school, church, etc
The freedom to speech
The new and repeat customers
Happy Thanksgiving Day

Goblet that makes you feel like a royalty...

I've never thought how wonderful it feels to get a goblet from Ellison Bay Pottery.

You don't have to drink wine from it. No one knows what inside. I use it to drink sparkling juice, milk (with cookie), tea, water, juice... and I feel like a royalty.

It's a beautiful piece to look at and yet it's more functional than regular glass goblet.
Best, it's microwave able. Because it's made of clay, it could withstand heat.

EBP makes not only goblets, mugs and vases. They also make lamps, baskets, casserole bowl, plates and other functional items.

To learn more about EBP, you can visit their website, http://www.ellisonbaypottery.com/

Save those dust...!

No, it's not pixie dusts or dust bunnies.
It's sterling dust that you would produce when you're filing or sewing.

When it's accumulated to a good size of dust, you can add those dust to a piece of metal and heat it. The dust creates a beautiful texture that may surprise you. Like the one I did on this piece of metal disk.

Now it's up to you. It's beautiful just as is. You can use it as a pendant or if you have a pair, you can make earrings.
As for me... hm.. I'm still deciding what to do...

So... save the dust !


PS: I decided to make a big dipper pendant.

MPTV show today....!

It's been a busy day weekend for me. The show started at 10 am. It was a bit slow at the beginning but then the traffic starts to build up towards the afternoon.

It's fun to see familiar faces, friends and customers. Rick H, from Milwaukee, came approached me. He said that he bought a piece from me last year for her grand daughter and she's so happy with my piece. It just made my day...
I feel so happy to meet customers who came back and give complements. It gives me assurance that I did a great job.

And one of the best thing is meeting old friends and making new ones. I met Diane from EBP, Genevieve D and Elise L.

I plan to do more shows next year as the baby is a bit older now.
Even though this would be my last show for the year, I will still available online 24/7 at Etsy store.
