Open House!
My 12th Annual Open House
was a great success and fun for me to meet up with old friends and to make some new pottery enthusiasts.
Thank
you all for coming!
Miss the Open House? You can sign up to receive a snail mail postcard or email next year to
remind you of the event... just go to the comments page and tell me and I will keep you informed. Next event is the fabulous
Seconds Sale on June 3rd, 2011.
I attended 12 fairs and shows this year,
some were 17 days long!
While at each show I entertain the fairgoers with making these little tiny pots. Each is
stamped with EKP and are sure to be treasured for years to come.
Check out my Minis page for "As you see
them" groupings of mini piggy banks and tini face jugs.. notice the quarter near each set!
