Got Elephants in Your Tea?

Elephant teapot. Potter's Guild Show, Balboa Park. There were two of these and they were really cool but...they were around $300 each. In this economy, that was just a little too pricy for my pocketbook. So, the picture had to do. Cute little buggers.

More Potter's Guild; Color Addiction!

WOW! Call me a color addict but this piece of pottery with the pomegranate within just jumped out an hit me with the brilliant colors and intricate patterns. I'm thinking I should have bought this one. Maybe next time...

Potters' Guild

The Potters' Guild had their show in Balboa Park on Sunday. There were all sorts of wondrous and beautiful things. This mug was one of the moderately priced items but with lots of character! There were others with crystals that sparkled gold in glowing glazes or rough textures that looked like wood.

While it was sunny, there was a strong, gusty wind that was whipping up table cloths, knocking over tents and crashing an occasional ceramic. Not the best thing during a pottery show. Nonetheless, I managed to complete most of my Christmas shopping in a whirlwind of pottery shopping. I just need to figure out how to get them to Hawaii!
