Rhode Island Red Tent Event!

Can you imagine spending a day, a whole day, just being pampered, honored, respected, cherished and nurtured?

Join us at the Red Tent day for women, where you'll be able to relax with other women enjoying the magical experience of just taking the time to BE. Turn off the phone, breathe deeply, and just enjoy.

Gather your girlfriends, sisters, co-workers & your mom.. & enjoy a day where yes, as a matter of fact, it IS all about YOU!

$20 entrance fee entitles you to a day to pamper yourself with several services including hairstyling, hula lessons, burlesque shimmy & shake classes, eye brow threading, belly dancing classes, manicures, massages, reiki, reflexology, henna, yoga, & a handmade craft marketplace! Sounds like a party right?!?! Well I hope to see you there! And as though that is reason enough.. All of the proceeds are being donated to the RI Crisis Assistance Center, a group that provides services for survivors of domestic violence & sexual assault.

At the Rhode Island Red Tent event!
Sunday, March 4th 9am-4pm

Hello.. I've missed you!

Hello all! Sorry for my disappearance act! I've been super busy moving into our first home and completely fell off the pottery planet for a bit. I've been completely consumed with designing & decorating my new space as well as baking in my super cool retro original Tappan Holiday Oven. But spring is on its way and it is time to start thinking about my 2011 show schedule!!!

I have quite the line up and have added some new venues to my list! Check out my show schedule here.



One venue I am excited about is Festival Fete where you can find locally grown art, food & merriment! The organizers of the show are FABULOUS and have been showcasing participating artists on their blog and facebook! Today was my turn! Check out my little blurb on their blog here.

If you're local remember to SAVE THE DATE! I will be in the company of some super talented designers & crafsters!

P.s. If you are wondering about the lovely cream cheese pound cake image above.. It was DELISH and here is the recipe. Happy Baking! xo

Pss. Sorry about my Valentine's blog decor.. its been awhile! I'll change it back soon! Goodnight & sweet dreams~

Snow Mall in Somerville!

Happy Sunday all! Sorry I've been away for so long. I have a few hours of morning time before I drive myself and my pretty little Corolla out to day 2 of Snow Mall at the Arts at the Armory in Somerville. It's about an hour and twenty minutes from my sweet little home in Fairhaven. But luckily the organizers are wonderful and made the hours from 12-6! Leisure Sunday morning PLUS a great time in the city listening to some great tunes and meeting some new friendly people that are taking home my little babies! Today my sister Lisa Lisa from My Velouria Designs will be sitting with me. I've packed up a picnic of crackers and cheese, some hummus & crackers, a little trail mix, and chocolate of course! : )

So if you are in the area please stop in! There are 35 vendors all together.. everything from handmade stationary, jewelry, photography, hats, masks, doggie accessories, vintage, and pottery of course! There is a $2 admission free and children are free with an adult. Bring a toiletry for the Somerville Homeless Shelter and get in for free! They'd really appreciate your donation so check out your pantry or stop by the dollar store and bring some over!

I hope to see you but if not, you can find me Tuesday night over at Margaret's Restaurant's 4th Annual Craft Extravaganza!!! Enjoy your Sunday! xo
