ABOUT:
This is a small hand built dish. It's got it's uses wide open. What do you want to put in it? Cupcake? MnM's? Stitch markers? Jewlery? Change? It's a simple but beautiful little dish with an elegant edge and majolica painting on the inside. The outer bits are a semi solid single color that coordinates.

Majolica is a style of pottery that uses a colored clay base (in this case terracotta) and a white opaque glaze over that. On top of that designs are painted. Of course I like sheep but you'll see many other themes in what I have on the mugs, cups and dinnerware.

I really do have a love of bugs. Dragonflies visit me in the shop. They zip in, pop at the lights until I shut them off and then they land somewhere before they head out. Beautiful big buzzy things.

SIZE and USE:
This dish is approximately 1 inch deep and about 5 inches wide. Perfect for so many things.

Each item is individually hand made and glazed well. I make these items to be used. This is food safe. It is also microwave safe - Safe for top rack of the dishwasher. Though, considerate use is always recommended with any handmade one of a kind item.

PROCESS:
Everything is made to last and fired in a kiln. Then I choose a series of glazes and colors that will help bring out the whimsy and personality of each design. I try to stick to the same glazes for each piece but I have a habit of occasionally going off script. It is then given it's second trip into the hot hot kiln to make it the sexy little item it is today.make it the sexy little item it is today.
