    Thanks!
    The little houses are supposed to hold LED tealights, but the first one I made was not big enough (star on top). I corrected the dimensions for the second one (heart on top) and a third that I gave to my sister.
    I think I might get a table at the town's annual Strawberry Festival this summer. It's cheap money for a table; some of the tables are just yard sale stuff. If we can unload some of our pottery and make back enough to pay for some of our clay, then it might be worthwhile. I would price things low just to move them.
    The problem is that we have a very small house and now there are two of us producing a stream of stuff. We already have a butter dish, and now DH and I have each built a butter dish. I actually prefer the clear glass one we already own in terms of practicality, and nobody needs 3 butter dishes!

    Wow, rr! Those are all so nice! I love the fish and like the little heart necklaces.

    I will soon have more pictures to share, but I liked the way this kohiki planter came out, kind of funky and organic looking. I potted it up with some succulents from the garden and put it on my new improvised garden table, and I am pretty pleased with the overall effect.

    That is such a nice pairing of plants, container, and table. Very pleasing! They complement each other so well.

    Here are my most recent projects. I really loved doing the plant impressions from my garden, and I'm happy with the way they came out. These weren't part of a class project, just something I did on my own so it felt a bit more creative (although I certainly didn't invent the technique).
