Another Holiday Sale under my belt

The Ottawa Guild of Potters (www.ottawaguildofpotters.ca) had their holiday sale last weekend. It's my honour to be part of group with many talented artists. This year, the sale was at the newly renovated Horticulture Building (Lansdowne Park - downtown Ottawa). The space is lovely and all of us started the setup at around 8am on Friday and the door was open at 4pm (after our Mayor, Jim Watson had cut the ribbon - yes it was also the grand opening day for the Horticulture Building).

We had many customers came by for the 3 days and many left with their bags for goodies. And by the time we close on Sunday at 5pm, we had many happy artists as well. All in all I think it was very successful.

Here are pictures of my booth (#42):

Now that another holiday sale under my belt, I have to start planning what to make for next year.

I have plan for December already, I would like to make some more espresso cups, at least one soap dispenser, perhaps a teapot and maybe a casserole as well. Hmmm, how many weekends do we have left for December?! Maybe this is a bit much, but will see.

Toothbrush holder's new owner

We delivered the toothbrush holder to own friends, Matt and Kana to "match" up with the soap dispenser they bought from me from the show last November. They seems to like it. :)

I was delighted to take part of the Ottawa Guild of Potters' Great Bowls of Fire . This is an annual event raising funds for the Ottawa Food Bank. I was one of the bowl markers and helped a bit of the set up. My bowls are the dark blue ones at the bottom of the picture.

January 2018 update

January 31, great day to conclude the work I've done for the first month of the year. I guess it's also a great start to check off some items on my list for this year. :) Here are the pieces I made in January. I cheated a bit on one of the garlic keepers as I started that at the end of December. Some bowls for Great Bowls of Fire were made and a number of mugs as well. Garlic keepers and soup bowls And my TODO list is getting slightly longer. My mom asked me to make a few mugs for her friends in Hong Kong. My parents have been great supporters of my work and this is just to show that they think that their friends might like them as well. Still need to make more to fill the kiln, but I am happy with the accomplishment so far. Mugs to be
