I have always made all my pottery from scratch…but something about these Mayco giant beer steins bisque molds pulled me in. It was fun to glaze these (fired to cone 6).

The Monarch #butterfly embarks on one of nature's most incredible journeys, migrating up to 3,000 miles from #Canada to central #Mexico. These tiny travelers, with wings of vibrant orange, navigate the vast distances using the sun and Earth’s magnetic fields, defying the odds

I got lazy using Amazon. No more. Buying directly from businesses, using Costco on-line, local small businesses and my wonderful public library for books. No more Kindle. It feels good and I will continue.

Working on my Environment Collection!
💙 25% to charity: environmentally friendly of course!
💙 I use only recycled clay and glaze scraps I already have.
💙 I only use paper products for shipping, so everything can be reused, recycled or composted
💙 Focused on creating high-quality useful pieces.
