One thing I was ecstatic to see the first time we went out to look at the property was that there were gopher tortoise holes. I’ve been a fan of gopher tortoises since I lived on the farm; we had them out there. I just love the slow, steady, “ah-yup” …
OK; in re-reading this before publishing it, it’s turned out much more introspective than I originally intended. Just be forewarned – I ramble! — Have I told y’all about The Luminaries Club? It’s a business group I’ve joined, primarily for solopreneurs and creative types. The Luminaries Club is your creative business headquarters. …
(Cross-posted from my work blog) There’s very little work-work going on at HaldeCraft this week (again, I thank all y’all for bearing with me while we fix the place up, pack, and move). In ceramics, I’m trying desperately to carve out time to clean some greenware so I can fill …
Holy cow, y’all. I knew I hadn’t blogged my knitting in a while? But I didn’t realize I hadn’t blogged it since February. Of 2014. Expect a lot of catching up….! (Edited to add: I’ve pre-blogged a little under half of what I’ve knit since I last posted, and doing one …
I have to start this by saying that this yarn is really hard to photograph — it’s almost as if it’s too rich for my camera! I now have dozens of photos of this yarn in different places in and outside of my house, searching for that one particular light …

Here are a couple of inside-studio shots. That Poor Man was originally going to start with the back deck for the house, but a little problem with the truck has derailed that for a couple of days. So he started with the studio, instead. TO START WITH…

…there’s a million things to be and you know that—- they’ll all happen at OUR NEW HOUSE! Sweet Zombie Jesus, what a trial. If this place turns out to be haunted or something? Like, the Amityville Horror of Keystone Heights? Those ghosts better step the fuck back because I fought …
My heart goes out to you if you are still buried in snow… but the weather we’re about to have is why I love living in North Florida. Our general rule of thumb is that if you don’t get it in the ground by about March 15th, it’s going to …
Remember about this time last year when I mentioned looking for a new home/studio space? That dream is finally – finally – being realized, and I’m going to have my hands full for the next couple of months. How will all of this affect HaldeCraft? Custom Orders are on hold. As …
OK, I really, really hesitate to put this out there for fear of something ELSE going wrong… but we saw a lot of friends over the weekend, and of course they asked, and I can’t NOT answer, and then if I answer them I can’t just not say something online where …
This product listing is for the Summer 2015 yarn club, a club that runs from May – July 2015 and is for three skeins of yarn in the weight of your choosing. This listing will be active until April 30th, 2015. For the theme this round, we are going into …
Don’t get me wrong — yarn lovers love yarn! But not everything that I make that’s geared towards yarn lovers is specifically… yarn. If your crocheter loves to make doilies but is out of room to show them off… how about getting them a decorative (and useful) bowl to put more …
So, I asked this question the other day, on Facebook and Google +… I’ve got a bunch of single pieces and prototype pieces that I’m not sure what to do with. I don’t have room to keep them, and they’re not horrible pieces, just things that after doing the one …
Recently I wondered what some of my top-selling ceramics might be. My research surprised me! I knew mugs would be at the top of the list (y’all like mugs as much as I do!); so it was no surprise that the Frog-Inside mug, the Irish Coffee mugs, and the Lodge mugs …
Sweet Zombie Jesus, I hardly even remember why, at this point. Well, I say that, but then I do things like trip over the garbage can while trying to thread my way between my desk and the stack of HaldeCraft yarn without knocking the drying ceramics off onto the floor, …
I’m writing one of those long, involved, navel-gazing posts about why Tim and I even want to move out into the ass end of nowhere, and it occurred to me I haven’t really updated recently where we are in the game — I mean, the circus — I mean, in …
