Introduce yourself

What got your started in this?
I started throwing pottery about 12 years ago. I had been looking for an evening oil painting class in San Diego but couldn’t find one. (Has San Diego ever changed since then!) I opted for pottery and fell in love during my first class. I ran out to buy a wheel after my second!

Weird Fact about my shop
I am obsessed with it - I’m guessing that is not so weird!

How did you come up with your shop name?
It just came to me! I love when things happen that way.

Give some advice to other Etsians
Just dive in and love what you do.

Your goals for this year?
I’m dong my first craft show in March and will do more if it is a success. I also want to get some more consignment contracts this year.
