Dag Pottery Sales & Studio Together

I (Diana) am so proud of the work that my students create in our time together in the studio. I love these pictures (many of them are ones that they took and shared with me after going home): Elaine's Seder plate Olga's vases Olga's plate and inspiration (we had fun coming up with the words to use) Olga's tile project for a Ukrainian friend Olga's dish set Diana's fried egg plate and bowl in use in per neighbor friend's home Inspiration and final onion holder that Olga hand built Diana's little cup used for dipping cookies  (per sister Nancy recently shared this bit of joy) Marty's candle holder, lit up below Marty's wall hangings in use Marty's planter, a home at home Eri's planter with orchid from Olga flowering Diana's "hoodoos" making a friendly conversation with books in Eri's home Elaine's hugging heart bowls (made as a gift for a family member) Mia's colander made it home successfully (this took a lot of d...

Elaine worked hard to get the measurements correct for a french butter dish (a water seal keeps the butter fresh out of the frig so the butter is always soft and easy to spread). Here is her successful result...in use in her home. She reported that it holds a whole stick of butter. Yay! Here is my 12 year old niece's, Ananda's, recent creation... a holder for her hair elastics . 

There is a lot of fun involved in making pottery (the  process ); it isn't all about product .  And it is really fulfilling to use what one makes too.  Here are some pictures of our pottery in use: Tonya's Carrot Bowl with Ashland Farmer's Market yummy local carrots! One of many orchid planters that Olga has made. She taught me that orchids like to have their planting-medium dry out between waterings. So I have made some planters with holes in the sides too. Tonya too. Phil loves my coffee mugs . This is one he uses daily. Tonya made lots of buildings (representing ruins) that she uses in her planting arrangements. Handmade soup (that I buy) in my bowl with a soap rest I made to keep the soap dryer. This is a container I made for my sister's cooking utensils (in Iowa). By chance, it completely matches her tiles on the walls!   Students, if you want, please email me  more  favorite shots of your pottery in use so I can add...
