Beautiful Unique Unusual

Beautiful unique unusual, those were some of the many compliments I received from customers the last two days at the Kris Kringle Mountain Market. It doesn't hurt to have a boost to one's artistic ego every once in a while. I sold quite a bit of pottery and I added several new collectors of my work. I chose to display my pottery on low shelves for this market because the winds and rain were heavy at times. However, my more diminutive display didn't keep the shoppers away.

The driftwood basket above went to Deborah, a long term pottery collector from Atlanta. One of my holiday tree ornaments is flying all the way to Minnesota.

The dotted butter dish will be given to some lucky person as a gift. Thanks to all who purchased my pottery. If you'd like to visit my studio, please give me a call. Happy holidays to you all. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.

  1. Glad you did well. It was a good day to sell pottery in Ohio too. I think the lower gas prices have boosted consumer confidence.
