And now, the moment I've been waiting for all week! Ahh! Enjoy :)

And now, Little Ox Pottery presents. . . . The new JEWELRY collection! 


Before. . . .. . .

And After! I know, crazy right? 



I've been SO excited to show these. Christmas definitely came early when I opened the kiln Tuesday morning. 




These are all one of a kind and beautiful! They are made of clay and recycled glass. When fired to 2200 degrees the glass melts and fuses with the glaze, cracking and creating a smooth and shiny surface. These are all on a 16 inch bronze cord. 





                                                                                  














                                                                              



                                                                            


 






Cocktail rings! These are sparkly and colorful! Perfect for your New Years outfit. All of them are attached to an adjustable ring which is comfortable for all finger sizes.  



                                                                              




Cute little rings! Earthy and sweet. These keep making me think of Captain Planet! Anyone else remember that? Earth! Fire! Wind! Water! Heart! Our powers combined, we are Captain Planet! All are adjustable to fit any finger size. 







Please email littleoxpottery@gmail.com to purchase. These will go fast! Another batch is in the works if you'd like to make a special request. Merry Christmas to all!! 

XOXO,

Sneak peek of the newest project. This is all you get for now, but stay tuned because I'm really excited about this one and I think you will be too!!




Oh, look! New mugs. . .



I love Christmas time! I've been listening to Bing Crosby all day! And in the photo below, my trusty partner untangles the decorations. . . such a good helper.

Custom Order Christmas

Many of you have asked me if I will be doing custom orders for Christmas gifts. . . .the answer is YES! I will be accepting orders until November 30th in order to get it all done on time. SO, email me and tell me what you have in mind for your loved ones. I will be happy to customize with names and dates etc. . . 



These are examples of the new magnet design. They are large and very strong! You'll throw all your other magnets away!  Plus, they look pretty cool on the fridge :) Email me if you'd like to customize a set for that special someone. I have letters, numbers, animals, birds, patterns, textures and more! 



These are a perfect gift for that newly married or engaged couple you know. Choose from different shapes and colors. $6 each.

XOXO,
Little Ox Pottery

Deep Fried Oreos and Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream. . .


Little Ox Pottery has been crazy busy lately! At last minute I decided to enter into two craft shows, the Gallatin Main Street Festival, and the Bell Buckle Webb School show. That meant I had to get busy! 




Luckily I had a lot of really good help to get the job done. It was so fun to prepare for our first craft shows, and even more fun to see people really loving all the pieces! Thank you to all that came out and visited our booth! We still have LOTS of pottery leftover.  Message me for details if you'd like to shop for Christmas!





Circus-themed monogrammed dishes (before being fired and glazed). A popular item at the Bell Buckle show!









Here's my awesome Bell Buckle help! Maggie is the best pottery packer I have ever seen! Apparently she used to work at a sandwich shop and that's where she learned her superb wrapping skills. 


And this is just ONE of the wonderful deep fried treasures found at the Bell Buckle craft show. Home made potato chips topped with cheese, bacon, and of course. . . ranch dressing. SO SO good. Also available were deep fried oreos, snickers bars, moon pies, and twinkies. . .What??!! I had a funnel cake for breakfast on Sunday, why? Because my assigned booth location just happened to be located right next to a funnel cake booth. Coincidence? I don't think so!


Just one of the many wall hangings we brought along with us. This particular one is still available!





Our sweet little Christmas tree. .



This is one of my faves. A grumpy Centaur magnet!


While I worked like a mad-woman to get ready for the craft shows, I also had a few Little Ox Workshops going on. My latest was just this past Monday at the home of Angela Knoll. These ladies know how to make a girl feel special! Angela had prepared for a pumpkin themed evening, complete with pumpkin chili (maybe the best chili I've ever had. . . ), chips and pumpkin salsa, and lastly (and most importantly) autumn spice cake with pumpkin pie ice cream! I only WISH I had taken photos of the food. It was awesome.




If you are interested in hosting a Little Ox Workshop at your house, or at JoZoara Coffee Shop, email me for booking! Little Ox Pottery no longer does the weekly open workshop at JoZoara's, but its the perfect place to host one with friends! I LOVE their coffee and their friendly service!  Thanks for following Little Ox Pottery!

Clay and Sunshine

Whoa. So much to blog about! I guess I'm a little bit behind. . Oh well!


First of all I'd like to share what just came out of the kiln! Our very first at-home workshop was SO MUCH fun! There was pizza, wine, candy, cookies, and clay! There were 17 of us, and we made trinket dishes and magnets.








I would love to come do a workshop at your place too! The host gets a free workshop, as well as other freebies. Please contact me if you're interested!



So, I spent most of yesterday packaging, which was actually really fun too. Plus, I had a little "helper".




Beautiful weekend! I did so much! I worked in the studio all weekend long, and still managed to squeeze in the Nashville Tomato Festival, as well as a studio campout (complete with hot dogs, regular dogs, and lots of studio playtime), with four of my dear friends.







Then Monday came and we all went our separate ways. I had a workshop at JoZoara Coffee 
Shop in Murfreesboro that night. 









Umm, check out the beautiful banana split latte they made me! It was just what I needed. Especially the whipped cream, and toppings! Still my favorite.

Whew! I must blog more often!

Thanks for checking in on Little Ox Pottery! Please contact me for information on booking a workshop. I am now booking ornament parties for the Christmas season!
