GET YUR PAINT ON!----paint your own pottery----

Here are a few things that have brought sunshine and happiness into my life during this dull,
Tired--gray--depressing winter!! I cant believe how happy it makes me every time I go for the salt and pepper, or the butter---or a mug---and I grab one of these.
It just puts a smile on my face. Every sip of that Herbal tea is enjoyed more in an adorable mug.
SO.....---guess which ones I made, and guess which ones I bought.
Hmm-mm?????

three of these are made by hand-------yours truly
And two of them were store bought.

Ahhh! Every time I look at you salt and pepper, you melt my heart!
If you shop at Anthropologie---no fair--cuz you'll know the answer.
or maybe youll know by the shotty workmanship -- ( me) he he

Anyway-these photos are bad---cuz my camera was about to die. But I'm pleased at how my plate turned out. Just got it back. I spend three hours painting that sucker.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE paint your pottery.
Sometimes you want to be creative , but just dont want all the mess, craft store shopping, and all that.
This is such a great way to have your fun and go home. Ruby and I made some stuff last saturday.
She made a ceramic pig---and I made a plate.
How many ceramic animals can we have?? Hmmm---I dont know , I guess we'll find out.
Ruby was BEGGING me to pre-buy this cat for the next time we go there. UGGG. I hate ceramic animals. Guess I need to get her a little shelf in her room to display them cute. Then I wont hate kicking them around the house so much. Ha ha!

you guys are all so nice. thanks for the compliments.
---i cant really take credit--cuz i had stuff to look at while i was painting it. but i did do the plate, and the jar with the green dots ( sugar jar) and the mug. which took me days and days.
i dont think talent is really a factor with paint your pottery. its just tenacity.
but its really fun--thats why i had to blog about it, BC
anyone could do it!!
