I've been making TONS of work and not finding much (any)time to blog.
If you're interested in following what's going on in my studio come find me on facebook! Easier to post pictures over there and quick updates for me.

Glazing time!
Bottoms are waxed, black underglaze is applied, pots are washed. Now to start dunking in clear!
My kitchen island is the perfect measuring tool, what fits on the counter will fit in the kiln.
Hope to have some lovely hot pots out of the kiln sunday morning and shipping my custom orders and trouble coffee co tumblers off on monday.

it's been a few weeks
So Hunter is growing so quickly and I've been wrangled back into making work for Trouble Coffee Company. I really like making wares for them, but I get stressed out over the smallest things.
I'm working on a bunch of 8oz to go tumblers (for espresso shots?)and then soon start up on Latte mugs and saucers.
Other happenings:
Custom order wedding plate. I probably wouldn't have taken on this project if it weren't for a friend. It's drying out slowly right now and hoping it makes it in time.
Brooke Noble sent me a tumbler the other day and in return I'm making her some whiskey mugs. Bowling Whale and Octopus. ;) (this might be one of my FAVORITE custom items ever)
new plate
Getting geared up for art walk, will probably have a bunch of whiskey cups and nesting bowls. Pics of those later!
Oh and what's a blog post without a little bit of hunter. (18 months tomorrow)

Whitney Smith is my hero

"I keep a blacklist right next to my bed and his name is on it."
Besides having one of the best blogs on the internet, she's so open and honest and wish I could/would write more like her.

tuesday funday
working on working out this layering glazes thing and thinner lines
and a 6 person dinner set. (bowls, plates, cup, serving bowl)
wish I were at NCECA though. So close yet so so far. It's a 4 hrs drive... but with an attached 15 month old it's just not going to work out. We are at the height of separation anxiety, I'm lucky to pee alone without a meltdown from Hunter.
