What are you working on this week? In an ideal world, we’d all be celebrating all week long with people we love and who love us… so hopefully your week contains at least a little of that. Here’s what my week contains….
Whoa. I have to be honest, y’all, I thought I didn’t do much this year. I think my eyes have been drawn more to the times I couldn’t fire the kiln rather than the times I could… and would you believe I fired the kiln 36 times in 2015? 36 TIMES! Last …
What are you working on this week? Mostly, I’m working on checking things in from GLAM over the weekend, and taking a look at what I might be able to restock before the holiday rush is over. In ceramics, I’m working on getting everything checked back into the shop that I …
I didn’t have time to write a blog post yesterday, so let’s just pretend that today is Wednesday and you can tell me what you’re working on! I am all ceramics, all the time this week. Pouring, cleaning, building, firing, painting, glazing, firing… and did I mention firing? As I …
Really, I swear, this post should wrap it up. After the extraction was over, Tim drove me to Chopstix where we picked up approximately two gallons of Miso soup to go, since I shouldn’t chew for at least a day, and Titi’s mom gave me some gelato to help my …
Need to catch up? I had a lot of tooth and jaw pain and discovered I needed an extraction of a broken tooth, which my dentist’s office couldn’t do until January. I KNOW, RIGHT?! My dentist at the Faculty Practice portion of the UF College of Dentistry is a lovely, patient, …
We all have them. That one friend for whom we live to find that one present that lights up their face when they open, because it’s so odd, so hard to find, so them … we know when we see it in their eyes that it’s not just the tangible …
See? I told you I’d finish this! When last we left our intrepid heroine… So at the advice of my dentist on my awakened/healing nerve, I popped Advil like bonbons all throughout the buying of the property saga, and the initial move. Then when I broke my finger and had …
What are you working on this week? As usual, I have a focus (this week, it’s soap) but I have a finger in almost everything, even if it’s just a little! In ceramics, I’m working on making some baby head planters for GLAM (Sunday, December 6th, Gainesville!) and trying to …
About a year after I got a root canal on my back bottom left molar (which was sometime around 2008 or so), I started getting a pain in my right jaw sometimes when I ate. It wasn’t all the time, and it wasn’t always with the same thing being eaten, …
:: clears throat :: Is this thing on….?
Do you collect mugs? Do you need some gift ideas for someone who does? Whether you’re searching for a little something special and unique for a loved one, or looking to send some gift ideas to someone potentially shopping for you, this post is a good one to hold onto! …
What are you working on this week (besides celebrating our Veterans today?)?
Four base yarns are on sale. Three of them will never return. Two previously discontinued yarns surprised me by showing up with a few more skeins in a bin. One colorway is being discontinued. Four base yarns are on sale. Elizabeth, Marion, Octavia, and Zelazny have all been marked down …
Are you looking for a gift for the knitter or crocheter in your life, but you don’t know a thing about yarn and are worried that you might get them the wrong thing? I’m here to help you! Mugs: Chances are good that your yarn lover also loves tea or …
What are you working on this week? For me, it’s one of those exciting weeks where there are a lot of things in progress but are so almost finished that you can practically taste it. In ceramics, I’m mere minutes away from going over to the studio and opening the …
The January – March 2016 yarn club is open, and spots will remain available until December 31st. This round of club will make your nerdy yarn-loving heart want to make the Kessel Run in under twelve parsecs, because guess what’s in store? There’s no need to have a bad feeling about this. …
What are you working on this week? While yesterday was the least productive day I’ve had in a while, the days before and the rest of this week will more than make up for that!
Since I’m calling October through December, 2015 and Three Quarters (I’m so over this year that I’m making a new, three-month long year) I thought this was a fine time to go over my polices for HaldeCraft.
Guest Post by FiberNerd It’s easy to loose your craft mojo, whether it’s due to an injury, family or work obligations, or you’re busy with your garden. But, as someone once said, winter is coming. For me, fall is usually a time to get my craft groove back, so today I’m going to …
That these buttons haven’t been in stock has been entirely on my shoulders; I took them out of stock to take them to a show, and then completely forgot to check them back in again (coming back from a show is a little chaotic) and then just sort of… forgot …
What are you working on this week? So far today it seems like I’ve one ALL THE THINGS; we drove to Jacksonville to pick up my Stepmother and Aunt, who were travelling, and while in that town stopped at a pottery supply shop for more clay and then stopped to …
Did you miss seeing the launch of these five new ceramic pieces? There is a little something for everyone here, and if you love mugs you definitely won’t want to skip this post. Badass Grandmother mugs: A cigarette. A Bowie knife. A dirty sweatshirt and a cozy red flannel jacket. …
Right now I only do a few craft shows a year – but one year I also did something called the “Monthly Craft Market” and did a show once a month for almost a year! That year alone taught me a lot about doing a craft show, and for me, …
