Every week if I take different things, maybe I'll sell some that nobody had seen before.
At least I'll be able to talk about new/different things.
But there aren't that many people who see them, so I know this is all wishful thinking.
If wishes were horses...
I have to think hard what I want to pack up.
Last week I sold a pot that had been pit-fired. So I'm taking another one this week. |
What can fit in the bin and be safe? And will I have to pack them all
up and bring them home at the end of the market? Yes, all the above
pots, and a few more that were small, did fit in the bin this week.
I
haven't been doing craft fairs for the last couple of decades, while I
was working one of those 8-5 jobs. I dearly love to visit them, and
usually come home with ...what else, a pot. I have always believed in
supporting what I admire, so the art of pottery will continue. Though,
come to think of it, I think I'm doing more than my share these days!

It's so hard to think about what pots go to a show and what pots stay home. Thinking about which ones will survive the trip is always a smart idea. Good luck at the show.
ReplyDeleteOh I really like that tile and the curved landscape looking vase very cool and your flower votives or mini bird baths? A while ago I was making floral bowls but drifted into other work. I should think folks would love these pieces as they are all unique. Good luck at the show; my farmer's market is next Friday and then Saturday we might have a yard sale depending upon the weather.
ReplyDeleteLovely pieces Barb! I especially love the little votive holders...the flowery ones! I was told to make what I love and not necessarily what I think people will love! Keep on potting and remember it only takes one person to love a piece!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness you do such awesome work!! These all look so pretty!
ReplyDeleteYour work is so beautiful.
