Handmade Holiday Workshop and Mini-Market!

I know that I've been neglecting my blog horribly, and to be honest I don't think it will get the attention it deserves until I've got my grad school applications in!  However, I will try to post occational announcements until then :)

Speaking of which... This Thursday I will be selling my ceramics at Etsy's Holiday Workshop at Austin's West Elm store!

Chili Festival, and a new Logo!

Yes I am still alive!  I have been very busy, as usual, and have barely had time to put stuff on Etsy, much less keep up with my blog.  To appologise for my lack of updates, I have two bits of exciting news!

Number one, and probably more exciting for you than my second bit, is that I will be selling my pottery at the Natural Springs Garden first annual Chili Cookoff and Festival next Saturday October 22!  It should be a fun event, with live music, all sorts of chili's and salsas for sampling, and of course the wares of various Austin-area vendors including myself!  For more information, check out their webpage: http://www.naturalspringsgarden.com/chilicookofffestival.htm

The second bit of news is that I have finally finalized my logo design!  I dont know if you remember this old post, or this even older one, but I have made a lot of progress since then :)  This is the rough version, I will be cleaning up the lines and coloring, so expect to see it on the blog and my Etsy store soon! 

Thanks for your patience, I hope to see you at the Fest, and I promise to give you an update soonish :)

New Stuff!

Earrings on Etsy

I finally have posted my earrings on Etsy!! I am very excited to have these finished products; there are a couple more I am experiementing with gas-firing (as opposed to soda-fired as all the ones currently on Etsy are) that I should also be posting soon.  I also have a bunch that are not painted yet that I will eventually get around to finishing up.

Things, as always, have been crazy, and I am about to start teaching Clayplay afterschool classes twice a week, which is exciting, but also means less time for my own work.  I think I just need to make sure to actually schedule my own work time, instead of trying to squeeze it in when I happen to have an hour or two to myself.  I've got to get my priorities straight, especially since I am planning on applying to grad school soon, I need to have some good work for my portfolio!
