Holiday Colors

Christmas colors, a few days late I know! Happy holidays and Happy New Year to you all! Thank you all for making Dirt Girl Pottery very successful this year. Here's to a great new year!

Studio Sale

I had my 2nd annual Studio Sale today. Well, it wasn't exactly a studio sale, more like a "move all the furniture out the living room and put my show set-up sale." But, you get the point. I almost did have a sale this year because I've been so swamped with craft shows and gallery stuff, but I really wanted to do it. It's great for me to connect with friends and neighboors.

Now my living room is back to normal and my pottery is back in the basement until next week! I'll be showing at the Old Crow Gallery for their holiday show.

Surviving Craft Show Season

My booth at the UMC show.

I spend August 7,8,9 and 10th (four days!) at the UMC Cumberland Craft Show. It was looooong, but I felt I made a lot of great sales. As usual, my ringholders, spoon rests, and mini pots were my best sellers, but I also sold quite a lot of mugs and cereal bowls. And 12 pendants, which is very exciting since they are just simply fun for me to make and are a total bonus when they sell. I'll definately do this show again next year, but maybe do it outside in one of the animal stalls. I know that sounds gross, but the spaces are huge and cost a lot less than what I paid.

Rob made these shelves for me. They where so easy to set up and display.
