Annual Mug Shot

There's nothing like explaining to your spouse that you have to light a fire in the
fireplace when it's 100 degrees outside, and try to convince him you're not crazy!

It was time to get my annual fireplace shot, before all these guys went to their new homes.

For the first time, I had so many, I couldn't fit them all in the shot without having to move most of my den area around, so I swapped out a couple to get them in the shot.

I was also lucky enough to see that I sold two of them this morning! 

I think it's going to be a good year!

Giveaway Reminder!

I just wanted to remind you that I do the drawing for my giveaway on Friday! Check here for all the details.

One of the prizes is a $15.00 gift card for Crazy Dog T-Shirts, a nice place to shop for those little "in-joke" t's. For instance, I just got these:

For those who don't know, Weyland-Yutani is "The Company" in Alien,
and Haddonfield High is from John Carpenter's Halloween.

They are so soft! I know that when I head up to Abel's Apple Acres for the Fall/Christmas season, I'll be wearing these. I can't wait for another horror dork to walk up and compliment me on these clever t-shirts! I still have my Sleepy Hollow Polo Association t-shirt, and it has weathered numerous washings very well!

As you know, I'm also giving away a jack-o'-lantern of my own making, and there have been quite a number of them coming out of my kiln!

Sorry, this one is a custom piece for a friend, so I
can't sell it...

So, if you want to get into the pot, please go back to the original post and post your comment there. I'm also giving away a 25% off coupon for my shop which will be valid until September 1. I promise I'll be putting some of my Hallowe'en things in the shop by then...

Good luck!

While I think up the giveaway contest, I've been slaving in my 104° studio. Here are a few of the things on which I was working over the weekend.

 Today I have a 15" serving platter to trim and a bunch of other stuff to do! 


Now, back to thinking up a contest... I'll let you know this week!

New Jacks Are Coming

Here's one of the guys I got out of the Raku firing a few weeks ago. He will soon have more friends!
