Something New

Wanted to share a little preview of some new holiday ornaments and decor I've been working on! I was really surprised how much I like working with the larger tiles of clay. This holiday is going to be colorful and bright!

Clean up

So we were pretty lucky with the hurricane this time around. Woke up to lots of debris on the lawn but other than that, nothing too dire. Since it's still pretty nasty out, I've been using this indoor time to ready my studio for the holiday rush. Cleaning off surfaces and organizing clay parts and pieces. It seems like it takes 2 minutes to destroy a clean place that took 2 hour to clean... My ultimate goal is to have such an organized space that it never gets messy. Hahahaha I know, I know, just let me dream :)

I've also been sketching a lot lately and as a result have come up with some pretty holiday ideas! I'm going to try and put some of these into reality this afternoon.

Hope you all stayed dry and safe during this storm!

Sundays at home

Early morning exploring, coffee, cleaning, kitten cuddling, soccer watching, hash browns and cozy corners with a good read.

Things I'm currently loving: home design

I've had a few days of normality after the home and garden show, and I'm doing what I always do: perusing home design products! I'm in the market for a new chair for our living room, but while I was on the hunt, these other lovely items caught my eye.

Update in photos

I'm exhausted! Today l I felt like I talked non stop all day. I'm currently drinking some hot tea and finally eating a little something since I didn't have the chance all during the show. One more day to go! :) here are a few shots from today.

Setup time

Have a few minutes before I start setup, it's always strange seeing the floor plan before everyone moves in for the weekend.

Update in photos

Today's photos are a study of disorganization and new work. My tiny studio is very cramped at the moment. It's times like these that I say to myself, " why didn't I buy those ikea shelving units?? "

The floor is of utmost importance to me. No matter how many tables I may have, the floor is where I end up and where my work spreads out. The closer a show deadline creeps up, the less floor space there seems to be. So at this current time: 21 hours until setup, I have about 1 sq foot of floor space left :)
