Fall Colors...

just not the fall colors you would expect...like leaves and pumpkins... Instead I bring you a peek at some new glazes, two that I love, one that I'm ok with and one that's totally not what I was hoping for. Can you guess which are which? The first is on porcelain, the middle two are on buff stoneware and the last is on porcelain as well. Thanks to everyone for stopping by for the Beads of Clay Open House event! If you didn't make it during the afternoon, I'm still offering a 30% discount on my website until midnight tonight when you enter the code fallopenhouse.

Busy Holiday Season coming up....

Well, readers, we are in for a super-busy Holiday Season!!! There is so much planned in the next month and half. Here's a little preview:

  • Weekly Features of Talented Artisans!
  • Weekly Give-Aways....get some free stuff!
  • Vote For Your Favorite Piece challenge events!
  • Business advice, tutorials and how-to's, plus tons of other stuff!
  • Lots of Sales announcements!
  • Maybe even a few recipes or two....plus whatever crosses my mind....
The kick-off begins tomorrow and will go until after Christmas. Yes, you heard me....after Christmas! Everyone who knows me knows that Christmas is my favorite holiday. I usually start decorating right after Halloween and leave it up until Valentine's Day, and then it all doesn't get put away. In every room, I intentionally leave one discreet piece of Christmas tucked away so I can glance at it all year long and still feel Christmas!

So, stay tuned....there is more to come starting tomorrow!

Hurry, today is the last day for my progressive birthday sale!

What do I have planned today? Well, probably putting on my cozy coffee-cup jammy pants and laying around watching House re-runs and World War II movies all day. However, kids are home from school again (Superintendent's Conference Day), so I may have to fight for the TV. Oh, will they be sorry later because I am going to make them all watch Das Boot later on!

And...

Halloween Costumes! Now, what could be cooler than that!?!

There he is, my son, Pyramid Head. If you are not familiar with the Silent Hill movie or video games, you will not know who Pyramid Head is. Let me show you a little snapshot the real Pyramid Head:


I know...pretty darn creepy, huh? Well, Jacy and I set off to make the costume about two weeks ago. It was really a lot of work and Jacy had H1N1 then, so he really couldn't help me out much. But he sure did look great! He never really wore it anywhere...He wore it to the Halloween party at school last Friday and on Halloween for a few minutes so I could get the pictures....(okay, I was mad after all that work I put into it and he barely wore it!). Good news, he has a cool prop in his room now! Besides, we went to see Saw 6 on Halloween, so it's all good.

And then there's the Gothic Queen...Tayelor. Her costume was pretty simple. She borrowed the clothes from me and her step-sister, Tina (who appears below) and the makeup was pretty easy to do. She ended up going to a Halloween Party on Saturday with her friends at the local coffee shop. I told her she looks so beautiful, maybe she will find another boy so she can tell "Hot and Cold Boy" to hit the road! She wasn't too amused.

I know, typical teenager...you try to take a picture of them, they flash that fake smile and you catch them with their phone. ....


Next in the Halloween gallery is Angie, my step-daughter's daughter. She's the one I have been babysitting much lately. Anyway, she was adorable as Raggedy Ann.

And then finally, my step-daughter, Tina, who was a dead prom queen. This picture was from Friday, however, as she wore this to work on Friday. Where does she work? HSBC. Want a mortgage from her? I didn't think so.....

Happy Halloween!...and Sale Continues....

Today's Sale -----> 10% off all purchases! Use code Birth09Sat in comments to seller in my Etsy shop!
A Halloween wish to all you Halloween'ers! Hope everyone has a safe and happy Halloween. Now that the kids are older, they don't trick or treat anymore (darn...can't dig in the candy bag anymore!). Therefore, we usually celebrate Halloween with a scary movie at the theater. Tonight will be Saw 6, but we won't be dressing up this year at the theater as we usually do. This year, Jacy is Pyramid Head (took forever to make the head) and he doesn't want to wrangle with it at the theater, not that I blame him. I would have been easy...I wanted to be Flo from Progressive! I love Flo!


Pyramid Head -
Silent Hill

Tayelor is dressing up tonight as she is going to a Halloween party with her friends at the local coffee shop. She's being a Gothic Princess. I will have to post pictures early next week. Speaking of which, I am hoping to do my blog surfing on Monday and seeing lots of Halloween costume pictures!

Have a great evening!

Weekend Sale...


This weekend only... Ocean Blue vintage button charm bracelet. Glass beads in ocean colors were hand wired to form the bracelet, sprinkled with hand wired blue/green dyed pearl buttons along the length of the handmade chain.

The clasp has been hand-forged into a scroll toggle. The bracelet is a large, measuring 8 1/2".
This can be adjusted if need be for a smaller wrist.

This bracelet is listed for $26, but is on sale for $20 this weekend only. This is such a steal! It certainly took more that $20 worth of supplies and time to create this beautiful piece! Your shipping is free if your purchase totals $20 or more! Click on the pictures for more details!

Weekend Sale!

Daisy French Country Vintage Button Necklace

Now on Sale in my 1000 Markets shop!

Regularly priced at $54, this gorgeous piece is on sale for $45, with free shipping (domestic) to boot! This necklace features a vintage ceramic button as the centerpiece. The button was not harmed in the creation of this piece and is attached to the necklace by hand-wrought wire work. Two smaller vintage West German glass blue buttons accent a little further up the piece. The chain is hand-created and wrought in Copper with French glass beads sprinkled throughout completing the charm of the french countryside during the World War II era. The clasp is a hand-wrought hook in Copper.

More photos of the piece are available by clicking the image. The necklace is Princess length (18"). Sale ends Sunday, June 14! There is only one and this is a one of a kind piece, so hurry before it is gone!

Alterity Art Gets A Product Shift....

Alterity Art...my other shop on Etsy. Alterity Art was born for several reasons: 1) It is my official legal business name 2) it was originally meant to serve as an art shop 3) it quickly became the shop filled with stuff I made that didn't have anything to do with buttons (like my Alterity shop).

That being said, Alterity Art is going to undergo a shift in product. I want to clear out all the jewelry, all the marine animal plushies, all the CheekyKat Kittie Jewels. I want to specialize the product to be art. Altered art, Aceo's, Paitings, etc. No jewelry, unless it is altered jewelry. So...To help this happen, I am having a Clearance Sale on most items in my shop...60% off! I gotta clear them out, They gotta go. Not only that, but buy in quantity and save more. Here's the sale:

Purchase:
1 or more, get 60% off (reflected in current price)
2 or more, get 60% off AND free shipping
5 or more, get all the above, plus extra 15% off (70% OFF!)
(sale applies only to clearance items)
