Treasures Show and a new gallery

I will be setting up next week for the Treasures of the Earth show in Shelby at the Cleveland County Arts Council.  The opening reception will be at 5:30 on February 16th.  The yellow cookie jar will be there (the others are currently at Kress in Asheville).  There will be a nice selection of nice home decor pieces as well as a good selection of functional pottery.

This year started out busier than I expected.  Just yesterday I shipped out new orders to 3 galleries.  The newest gallery is Coastal Magpie in Ocean Springs, Mississippi.   

This week I will take a few days to make a few pieces for myself.  Since the move I have been thinking about making myself a new dinnerware set along with a new utensil holder, salt and pepper, olive oil, butter dish and a few other pieces.

In the last glaze load I tested a few new glazes.  I look forward to doing some more experiments in the near future.
