Works-in-Progress Wednesday (09/28/16)
What are you working on this week? I thought I wasn’t really doing much until I went to go work on this post…
That awkward in-between stage
Our Gainesville house is at that awkward, in-between stage where we’ve moved out, but there’s still some crap sitting around for Tim to take to the dump, and small renovations have begun but nothing major has happened yet. Who wants a walk-through of a messy, kind of depressing place?
Studio update
Picture heavy post! I’ve been getting some organization done lately in the studio, as much as I can, and I’m excited to share with you how it looks (even though it probably looks messy; Martha Stewart doesn’t live here, this is a real working studio!). This is part of my …
Works-in-progress Wednesday (07/29/15)
This week I’m working on a number of things (when I can fit work in between six-times-a-day physical therapy, which is practically a full-time job!). In the studio, I’m working on organizing the molds, putting like-with-like, to make it easier for me to find molds when I have a custom …
Good NEWS everyone!
Whenever I say that, I hear it in the Professor’s voice, from Futurama. Anyone else? No? Just me? …. Anyway, just a quick pop in to say that this picture means…. … that we have Internet now at HaldeCraft World Headquarters! See that guy on the ladder at the corner …
My 15 acres gives you 15% off!
Don’t forget, now through Saturday May 16th, you can use the coupon code “15acres” (no quotes) to get 15% off all in-stock items at HaldeCraft! I wanted to have a pre-moving sale, but just ran out of time getting that together before I was *actually* moving… and then suddenly half …
More vignettes
This post brought to you by my phone, acting as a mobile hotspot! I went to a Verizon office and see what they could do for me, and was able to change two plans with one gig of data each to a single shared plan with ten gigs of data …
Studio update
Halloo, all! I’m in town today at the old house, stealing some Internet… wait, is it really stealing if I’m the one paying for it? Stealing some time for the Internet, how about that…? ANYWAY, I just wanted to pass on a couple of studio photos, to give you an …
So far, it’s like living in a hotel, with vaguely familiar furniture and nothing 100% completed.
Next time I move*, I don’t think I’m going to buy a bunch of new furniture for the new house at the same time. I do love the new bed, don’t get me wrong — both of us have been having back pains that have pretty much disappeared since sleeping …
Vignettes
The UPS lady almost gave me a hug when she got out of her truck the other day. “I *love* your new driveway!” — she settled for a high five, a few minutes of conversation, and then Tim walked the girls past her and she had dog bones in her …
Radio Silence
Ugh. I am about to embark on something completely frightening for a self-employed business owner of an online shop… an Internet-free existence. Not forever, although it’ll probably feel that way… but for at least four to six weeks, as it may take at least that long to get Internet/Phone/Cable at …

Love is looking in the same direction
It’s a good thing that Tim likes puzzles, because the sheer amount of things that need to be done, all seemingly at the same time, is starting (starting? HAH!) to wreck my head. Every time I start getting all, “I don’t know what to do NEXT! Everything has to be …
We have 3.5 bathrooms out there, you’d think ONE of them would be fully functional
I’m pretty sure by this point that if you put all three and a half bathrooms together, you’d get one single working one. This is the master bath. Both sinks work. The toilet works. The shower shoots water straight out at you from the faucet handles, at about chest level, …
Them’s the pits
Have we told you about the clay pit? About why this property was up for sale in the first place? As near as we can tell – and a LOT of this is guessing and conjecture and putting things together that we’ve heard through the grapevine, so, take this with …
A quick update from my last moving post
Let’s see… when last we left our intrepid heroes, they were pretty sure they’d finally worked out the last of the plumbing problems. HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH sob. Well, let’s see. Let me read over my last moving post, and update…. The truck hasn’t had to go back to the shop for anything; …
It’s always something!
OK, so, remember when we were working on the studio? Nothing new has happened there, this week. You see, the studio renos were Plan B. Plan A was to build a back deck. Plan A was to get the back deck supplies with That Poor Man’s new truck. His new …
Gilda Radner was right; it’s always something.
If you read this post, about a month ago, you know that the water was an issue/non-issue (in that it wasn’t on the first time we had the place inspected, so he didn’t inspect the water, and then the first appraisal was deemed “materially insufficient” because the water wasn’t tested, so …
Works-in-Progress Wednesday (03/25/15)
(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 …
The Studio, so far
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…

If you want to sing out, sing out. And if you want to be free, be free.
…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 …
HaldeCraft is moving… what does that mean for you?
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 …
