When last we left our intrepid hero… we had finished talking about the dye and soap studio (by the way, I’ve made a category for this now); now it’s time to move on to the ceramics studio. I took pictures a while ago, but am just  now getting around to looking through them, and I [...]

Oh, ow, I think my head just exploded. So. I THOUGHT (hahahahah!) that I’d told you the whole story back in December; turns out there was a minor addendum last month that almost made me find a baby to punch in the face. We had about a week to get all the vegetation away from [...]

(Part one; part two) So, remember a couple of weeks ago when I was quoted in the paper, talking about the 3/50 Project? My friend Juanita saw it, and called me at the shop – she didn’t know about the shop; in fact, I hadn’t seen Juanita in years. She owns a ceramic shop out [...]
