The huge dog was the lasting impression and the young man who was so nice to chat with me! This was another shop that surprised me inside- it was huge and had beautiful displays!!! I had to lap the building a few times just to decide on a piece! John helped too and was also impressed with the sweet baby girl we met! She is the best greeter! I loved the studio space in the back- you can see through the window! You know I was peeking at what was in progress!

We actually went here twice- because I didn't have much cash the first time and I couldn't tell you when the last time I carried a checkbook. This old school potter is retiring when he runs out of clay- which makes me extra happy I snagged two of his pieces! I picked out a little cup and a lidded jar. I love his handles! The jar had his curly q handle style. I was enamored with the lights though, truly I was trying to figure out where I could put one at my home. But- I just don't need one. He had both hanging light fixtures and nightstand lamps. I loved them both! Great prices and I was so happy to surprise him when I came back!

Just wish he weren't so pro-army, I mean, I was glad he was glad to support the troops and wanted to keep thanking the manchild I was with, but still, it was a little weird at the end. I should have bought something, but I was in the mood to get mugs and this was more oh-so-pretty and less oh-so-functional.

I met Nicole back in March, I was visiting Seagrove for NC Potters Conference. They had a meet…read morelocal artists night at the local wine bar and I was chatting with another local when Nicole arrived. She was in the brink of opening her own studio and shop! I followed her on IG & was returning in June for a birthday trip, so I made a mental note to make it to her place. I met her dogs, chickens, ducks & even gave her hubby some tips since he was learning how to turn pots. I bought a lovely dish from her then. Fast forward, I'm still following her on social & a that she has a new goal of building a new studio and shop bigger and better on her family property across the street from the current location. Move that goal post, chase that dream! So, Nicole is using clay from her property to make mugs that she uses a technique called sgraffito, carving through underglaze. She carved these cabin mugs as her vision for the new place and every one of those mugs sold is going directly into the build fund. Her goal, make and sell 100. I'm a very passionate person about the arts, ceramics. I also love connecting with people and adore seeing what other people's dreams are, what they are passionate about. I couldn't wait to support her again and buy one of these very special mugs. If you love the look of want to grab one of your own, she does sell online too! I'm rooting for you Kluba Ceramics!!!
