 Thrown mini porcelain bowls- turned and waiting to be fired and glazed. Hello and welcome if this is your first time reading this.
Although its titled #wipsandblooms June 2017, in this blog you'll find what I've been up to as a ceramic artist in the last month, some plans for the month ahead, as well as favourites from the tag and next month's theme too. I'll talk more about the tag in a bit.... June has been a funny month hasn't it? Not quite four seasons in one day - but we have had a few extremes in weather conditions. We've had intense summer heat, as well as cooler days when I've needed more hot tea, and snuggled under a blanket in the evening. But despite differences in temperature I've still been enjoying longer lighter days, the peonies have had their own hiatus, the wild grasses are in seed and there have been brighter colours blooming in my garden, in particular the roses. I spent the first half of the month preparing for a local market with the Paperdolls Handmade. It took place on one of the hottest days, but there was a lovely ambiance with live music, lots of workshops and such a highly creative and talented mix of sellers. I had quite a few visitors who came to the market just to buy from me, either because they already follow me on IG or they had seen the blog post about my studio tour (see here) and that made me feel really quite privileged. For more of a flavour read this this review from Aliandher.com who said that " [my] hanging planters were one of [her] favourite items in the whole market'. Thanks, that's the best compliment I could ever hope for!
