New Attitude and (More Importantly) New Porcelain

Well, as we’re nearing the end of October (really?  already?!) I’ve come to accept that warm weather is not in my near future and have since chosen to embrace the oncoming winter.  In a big way.   I mean I already sang a damn Christmas carol (Johnny Cash’s Christmas-y feeling, if that counts). 

So yesterday morning I posted an Etsy treasury with a ‘cosy’ theme to further entrench myself in the holiday spirit despite my inner voice shrieking, “It’s too early for that crap!”  Not that the items in the treasury are crap—au contraire!  (Nobody said that while I was living in Paris, by the way, and I was sad.  But then I ate a demi-baguette and forgot the whole thing.)  I especially love that print by caitlihne who also happens to be located in the UK.  


Along with welcoming winter with open arms, a big ol’ man sweater, and obscene amounts of coffee, I’ve welcomed some new porcelain into the studio.  And oh my, do I like it!  It is higher firing (1280º C) than the other porcelain I was using which is now considered ‘discontinued’…pretty much forever.  I love this new porcelain too much to go back—it’s a much brighter white but not a stark white.  I hope everyone else will be as smitten with it as I am, and I’ve just listed three new pieces demonstrating its beauty, so you all can now check it out!  More to come!

see it in the shop!

  1. ooh I just stumbled across your blog and am falling in love with this porcelain jewelry; might you still have a ring for sale like that of the middle one in this post?
