Earrings and a necklace. Daily wear! Whether I am in the studio, teaching, working from home - I am not dressed without them. So - when Diana of Suburban Girl Studio announced an earring swap - sounds good to me!

My first partner is Linda Younkman. Arent these lovely? The blue beads are very detailed. and I love a spiral motif!

Curiouser and Curiouser...Inspired by Alice blog hop

It started with a rabbit. And a pocketwatch. There are so many iconic images from Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, but to me it all starts with the rabbit. Yes, I think caterpillars, vials of potions, cards, roses, tea parties and top hats, even flamingos and croquet. But I have a thing for rabbits...

Clay Camp

June 26, 2012 - 8:05pm - jenny

When I taught full time - weekends and summers were my own. Now as a freelance artist and educator my schedule is quite the opposite. I teach a two week intensive Ceramics camp every summer - two sessions in fact. There is wheel throwing, sculpting, hi fire reduction and more for the "teens" ( the 10 and up crowd). For the little ones ( ages 6-9) there is a variety of hand building - both sculptural and functional pieces. Whatever I dream up for any given summer... Currently in week 2 - glazing week, I though I would show you what we had been up too...

Denizen of the Deep - Suburban Girl Design Team "Summer" reveal!

Summer! It is here - no questioning that! Temperatures in the 90's here in Delaware have me dreaming of the ocean. Luckily all of DE is relatively close to the beach (as opposed to the shore in NJ) and headed there for a respite soon. The summer charms from Diana arrived ages ago - and a lovely lampwork from Jan as well! I confess, I finished this yesterday.
