It’s June! I’ve had some time with my pots from our special May wood-firing and my neighbor, who grows his flowers from seed, has a spectacular garden blooming. I pass by his garden on my morning walk and, while I’m trying to be patient while my dog eats grass, I imagine how the flowers will look in my new pots fresh from the kiln.

This is our third year firing the soda chamber of the wood kiln together and it was a wonderful firing. We are excited to share and celebrate our work and our friendship in December at the Lebanon Picture Frame and Fine Art Gallery. Put December 6th on the calendar and join us for opening night!

In addition to looking forward to that show I also have three wood-fired vases (from other firings) in the show Embrace The Vase at the Worchester Center for Crafts juried by Martha Grover which opens June 21 and is up until July 20th. See it online at https://www.thehandcraftedshop.com/
