…is a few relaxing days at home with my peeps, and something yummy to munch on all day. Adam and I are planning to have a TV marathon… We’ve recently gotten hooked on “Burn Notice” and watch an episode or two after the kids go to bed. It’s good to stare at something entertaining at the end of the day… it breaks the monotony of the to do lists for a bit before we hit the hay.
But hey – I remembered that I had a few images from last weekend:)
The Holiday Show at Lovejoy Pottery was quite fun, and I met some wonderful people!
This was the Blue Hen Pottery booth. Nice natural light from the window:)
This sweet wood stove kept us cozy all day, and cooked a pot of chili!
This is unfortunately a fuzzy phone picture, but it’s the booth of Nancy and Dan Lovejoy, the hosts of the show.
I traded some work with Nancy and Dan, and this lovely plate has been in use every single day since I brought it home:)
The blue bird on the right put a spell on me! Had to have it! It’s made by Kathleen Redman, if I’m not mistaken. Nancy and Kathleen Redman is a mother – daughter team, and they make nice work. Loved their sculptural pieces. The blue bird – I like to think of it as a hen – is guarding the kiln right now:)
Took a picture of these bag-wall bottles in upright position on Wednesday, when I was cleaning up around the kiln shed. These will be part of the STARworks Ceramics exhibition in Asheboro at the beginning of January. This show will be all about STARworks Ceramics Clay bodies.
These smaller bottles will go there also.
My dear friend Anna gave me this cup today as X-mas present:) We were in Greensboro last week, hunting down Kim Chee ingredients at Super G Mart, and visited a few shops in downtown while in the big city, and I saw this artist’s work, and fell in love! I will try to track down the name of the artist soon… Sweet work!
And here’s the Holiday Chicken, inviting y’all in this weekend! All of these folks Bulldog Pottery, Ben Owen Pottery, Donna Craven Pottery, Dean and Martin Pottery, Chris Luther Pottery, Jeff Brown and Michele Hastings Pottery, Seagrove Stoneware, Johnston and Gentithes Art Pottery, David Stuempfle Pottery are going to have kiln and studio openings this Saturday, and Blue Hen Pottery will be OFFICIALLY open for the first time so swing on by!
I will hop over to the kitchen now and start the supper. Sour kraut soup tonight – perfect for a chilly night!
