T'was the night before Foothills...

This small, lil' bitty kitty box waits at Foothills.


Well, it's been a wild week!  
One sale down and another starts tomorrow.  
I haven't even had a chance to download any pix!

The Terra Madre Holiday Sale was a great success
not to mention terrific fun, and I hope to get some photos up soon.
Thank you to all my friends and students for coming by!!

Tomorrow is the first day of the Foothills Craft Guild's Show.
Fabulous daughter, Kelsey, helped me to set up the booth.  Special thanks
to my dear friend, Judie Beck, for trusting me with her suburban for 
the weekend.  heh heh heh.
And now I'm off... time to rubber stamp more shopping bags...

If you're local... the show is at the Jacob's Building at Chilhowee Park next to the zoo.
Tomorrow and Saturday 10 am to 6 pm * Sunday 11 am to 5 pm.
Come by booth 11 and give me a hug.

Friday hours correction!

Friday nite we'll be there from 5:30 to 9 pm not 8 pm.

Come see our fab collection of pottery and enjoy 

some refreshments while you shop!

Madly prepping for the shows...

Preparations continue for the
Terra Madre Holiday Show and Sale, and I think I'm in pretty good shape! I'm really excited to see what the other Madres bring.
Oh yes.
I'll be shopping too.
Join us Friday nite for wine and goodies at the opening reception.
More shopping on Saturday!
(see details in the previous post)

I still have to carve a few square plates for the
Foothills Craft Guild Show and Sale.
And naturally there are a couple booth details to work out yet.
But I'm pleasantly surprised ~ and a little puzzled~ that I haven't
started freaking out yet.  Kinda nice.  really. 
The Foothills Show is Nov 18-20, Chilhowee Park, Knoxville.
I'll post more details soon!
If you're in the area I hope you'll come by!

Terra Madres Holiday Sale

Our Holiday Show and Sale!

Late last year I was honored with an invitation to join an
incredible group of local women potters known as
TERRA MADRE.
It's a fabulous collection of talented, dedicated and generous artists,
and I am so excited by the energy whenever we get together.

I hope you'll come by our show... say hello, and get a jump on some
unique gifts for the holidays! 

How can it be November?!

Very disturbing to see that I haven't posted since August!  sigh.  

Thanks to a hot water leak in the crawl space under the kitchen/dining and laundry rooms things were a tad hectic here.  Not to mention 

the 'disturbance' to the studio downstairs.  

Welcome to Cafe Guido.... where everything that was once in the kitchen and dining room
has moved into the garage or here in the living room.  It was actually pretty
convenient having the fridge in here.  And we dined on the couch
under the tree with its lil' bitty white lights.

Before and After
A happy place once again.

Now back to the madness of prepping for 2 shows coming up
in the next 2 weeks...
