I heard from a dear friend asking if I could make herb strippers like a picture she enclosed. I said “Sure!” and so I’m in the process of making these herb strippers that are in the drying stage. Will post pics later of the finished products.

These floral wreaths are a new thing I’m making and I’m really happy with them. You can also remove the velvet cord and use them as a candle ring. More to come. 🌸🌸🌸 #pottersofbluesky #pottery #handbuiltpottery #claybuddies #handbuildersofbluesky #floralwreath #ceramicwreath #flowerring

What else can shotglasses be used for if you don’t drink shots??? Match strikers (with a strike plate on the bottom), Q Tips holder, a mini vase. 😊 #pottersofbluesky #pottery #handbuiltpottery #shotglasses #claybuddies #matchstrikers #handbuildersofbluesky

Flower Frogs… every time I do a show I get the question “What is a Flower Frog?” Even though I have one in use to demo it. That just gives me a great opportunity to talk about it. 💐🌺🌻 #pottersofbluesky #pottery #handbuiltpottery #claybuddies #handbuildersofbluesky

Some recent deviled egg dishes out of the kiln #pottersofbluesky #pottery #handbuiltpottery #deviledeggdish

I create my pottery in my garage. It’s not the prettiest studio, but it’s my studio. During this cold January in Ft Worth, Tx, I’ve done a little handbuilding in my house instead. This is the time of year when I try new projects. I’ve been playing with making these wreaths. #pottery #wreath

Some sweet little conversation heart kitties ready to go to the coffee shop along with some other “Valentine” pottery. Anyone in Ft Worth, Tx the coffee shop is Love Local Coffee and Gifts #pottery #potterykitties #valentinepottery #lovekitties

Is there a way to edit a Bluesky post after it’s posted?

Another handbuilt mug.

My sweet youngest granddaughter, Hadley, wanted to make something in my cold cluttered garagio. She decided to make a tic tac toe game. It turned out soooo cute.

I’ve gotten off to a slow start for 2025. And then general exhaustion from all the Christmas activities and family commitments in December as well as pottery production and my last craft shows of the year made me question myself on how much longer I can maintain this pace. Gonna turn 75 this year

First post here. This mug was one of the last items pulled from my kiln in 2024.
