From forest finds to functional art! I’ve been carving spice spoons + crafting turkey tail brooms with love. 🧹🌿 The kiln’s finally repaired, and clay work is on the horizon. Stay tuned—new ceramics coming soon!

Had some more fun making not one but two turkey tail brooms this time! Loving the rhythm of the wrapping and the beauty in the bristle fan. This craft has me hooked. 🧹✨

🥄✨ A few weeks ago, I made this spoon at the Exchange, and it was such a blast!! There’s something incredibly satisfying about shaping something by hand that’s both sculptural and functional.

It’s been a while, I tried my hand at making a turkey tail broom, woven, fanned, and full of old-school charm. 🧹Feeling connected to centuries of craft. Watch to see the magic come alive! 💫

Just stumbled upon these unfired mini pitchers I made for an art show a few years back. Loved how they turned out in their greenware stage!

Peeking into my vintage green Mason jar, I’m infusing orange blossoms into oil, capturing spring’s essence in a bottle.

This morning in the shower, I felt something weird on my left foot.
I looked down and couldn't tell what the heck had landed on me.

This stunning quilt is part of a larger wall piece by the talented Susan Lane. Rich with texture, movement, and color, her work invites you to lean in, slow down, and feel the story stitched into every thread.

Can someone explain this? Bluesky announces they're changing the character limit. Uh...what? Am I missing some genius innovation? That’s not an upgrade, that's a downgrade. Is this social media performance art? Did they merge with The Onion and forget to tell us?😂 #Bluesky #TechFails #IsThisAParody

Kato’s not usually a big biscuit maker, but once in a while, he surprises me.

I’ve referred to him that way ever since I finished the last page of Mary Trump’s book, Too Much and Never Enough. It’s frustrating that the people and the media here in the U.S. don’t call him out for what he truly is, a sociopathic, pathological lying narcissist.
