future combination

Felt + Ceramic = My new project.


I'm so in love with combining different materials. On my worktable I've got some cork coasters staring me in the face waiting to be combined with cut felt. That's one. Next to those guys are 4 very precious unglazed bud vases which were wheel-thrown during my ceramic classes last year. I want to get started on those next. I'm so excited about my design for them. I wish the day had more hours. Hopefully I can set aside some time this Friday to at least start on one.

p.s; the picture shown here is one of the newly glazed pieces I picked up from class this week. Blue-green glazes are my weakness. Also shown are felted hearts, a custom order for friend and Etsy buyer.

where i've been

It feels like ages since I've been in this space. Last year was a hectic one. It was slow on the creative front, but I didn't mind one bit. Around Christmas time things picked up swiftly, and now (while I can) I'm working through my backlog of to-make projects. For those who don't know, B and I are expecting our first baby in March. So in these 7 weeks before the due date, I'd like to get some Reyart work done, as well as finish up the nursery and other baby-related decorations.

I'll try to post as much as I can, but I've found even keeping up with Flickr to be hard. We'll see...

In the meanwhile, feast your eyes on this bowl I finished last Saturday. It's colorlicious.
