About two weeks before Christmas I get together with my daughters and granddaughters and bake beautiful and tasty treats for our family, friends, and neighbors.

I enjoy a good cup of tea. I have experienced high tea and visits to several tea houses that were so memorable! I love the history surrounding tea with friends and family, and there are so many different types of tea to try! My tea set collection is stored in a glass cabinet in my dining room.

Featured here are my artisan wall tiles. Each tile has a hanging notch in the back, so they can be hung anywhere. … More New Products This Fall
I know this first image is messy, but in reality studio work in ceramics is not a tidy process. I try to keep things as clean as possible, but I am working with mud after all. This muddy process is very satisfying when I add the finished items to my shop and get new “likes” and purchases from the listing. … More Back Again
Paula (Paula’s Garden) purchased some of my pendants a while ago and I recently visited her Etsy Shop. I enjoyed how she employed some of my beads in her work.
