A New Toy


I've had quite a busy Christmas season. It started with a commission to create 20 bowls for the Berry College board of trustees Christmas presents. I also decided to have a pottery party/show at my home and set to work creating a load of pots for that as well. Keeping my etsy shop and the cobblestone shop stocked with my pots while taking on the other two projects has been quite a task! Not to mention I have a job to go to everyday!



As a reward for my labors, I purchased a pottery wheel of my very own. I bought a Pacifica GT800, brand new! I had it shipped to my parents house since thats where I am spending my holiday and have been throwing pots whenever my heart desires. It works just as I hoped it would and I am so excited to start a new year one step closer to my goal of becoming a full time potter.

  1. Congrats! I have a Pacifica, but I have the other model. It's great, though!

    Your pottery is beautiful. You're very talented.

  3. Awesome. Full time potting is possible. Come visit Tire City in Augusta sometime.

    I don't want to post comments with my blogger account. Grr.
