Happy New Year!

I hope you all survived the holiday festivities, and had a joyous season with loved ones.  We enjoyed good family times, and gathered together for our 2nd annual (and possibly last) gingerbread hootenanny.

It was great fun and tons of sugar was had by all. I just don't recommend it unless you have a lot of time to devote to such an undertaking.  I won't mention any names, but apparently someone has been eating the trees because they seem to be disappearing.

We're enjoying the lights on the tree for one more night until alas I will have to pack everything away tomorrow.  Now that the dust has settled from the wrapping paper mountain, and gingerbread crumbs, I managed to spend a few days finishing up some glazing I started before the holiday rush.  Here's a few pieces I unloaded from the kiln this morning that I'll soon be listing in my Etsy shop:

Recently I sent out the prize to Jane Murphy who was the winner of New Hampshire Magazine's November Spot the Newt challenge.  I sent Jane a snowflake necklace and earring set,

as well as one of my festive fish pins and matching red heart earrings.  The snowflakes, clay beads, fish pin and hearts are all made from white earthenware clay.  Most are finished with a mother of pearl luster, which requires a third kiln firing.

Congratulations Jane for finding all of the hidden November Newts!  Each month the New Hampshire Magazine features a different NH Made member.  There's always a good reason to Spot the Newt!

 

Stay tuned for some new Clayworksnh designs coming very soon.  Wishing you all a Very Happy New Year!

What's New in December at Clayworks!

Ho Ho Ho ~ Before I hit the streets to hopefully finish my Christmas shopping, I thought I would update my blog since it's been a while.  For some reason this month just flew by.  I can't imagine why!

Now that my one craft show of the season is over, I'm focusing more on my Clayworksnh Etsy shop.  Here's a few new ornaments that I listed recently:

My beads and other clay creations are also available at these NH bead shops: All Beads Considered in Exeter now carry my pendants, beads, jewelry and currently have some of my finished necklaces available for the holidays:

Stop in and check it out.  Julie and Chris at All Beads Considered have everything for your beading needs and more!  I'm amazed at all the fun stuff they have in there!  You need to walk around a few times to see all of the treasures on display.

Here's a few new simple, decorative stoneware pendants I just sent to Jennifer at The Guest House, A Creative Studio in Meredith:

With a blend of my favorite Coyote glazes of purples, sage, teals, turquoise and metallic green. I finally got over there to see her new shop in Mills Falls and what a beautiful creative space with everything you can imagine for your beaded creations.

Congratulations to Jane Murphy ~ the winner of the November Spot the Newt challenge in the New Hampshire Magazine!  I'll be sending Jane items from my Clayworksnh Etsy shop.

Don't forget to shop NH Made for the holidays ~
