Paper work

I hope this season of giving, eating, laughing
brings you much joy!

Two Old People Wrestle Dog!
Every year at Christmas we receive newsletters from our
friends. I love to read them, and this year, as we got our
letter composed, I thought it would be fun to take a picture
with our dog. She is afraid of cameras (who knows why) so
it is a struggle to get her in a picture unless she is asleep.
This is our attempt at coolness!
Our news letters will go out late this year because daughter
April still has our address book. She took it last summer to
copy addresses for wedding invitations.

I have been experiencing an obsession with making Origami
boxes! Once I figured out how to make them, I can't stop!
These are made from gift wrapping paper. I just found some
handmade paper at COST PLUS, and am excited to make
more of them.

Beauty As a Function

These pieces are going to Brown's Gallery today. I make functional pottery that is unique in its beauty. It is not supposed to look like mass produced pottery that is found in department stores. This Sake/Brandy set is pleasurable to hold, as well as having visual beauty.


This is a wine goblet set that is also going to be in Brown's Gallery for sale.
