12 days of Christmas Giveaway...Day three!

Welcome to Day Three!!!

Today meet Jeanette of vesselsandwares



I fell in love the the whimsical and earthy look of her dishes! Can't you just imagine sipping your morning coffee from that cute mug


Or enjoying summer berries freshly washed in this colander?

How did you get started creating?

I took pottery for high school summer school. And took classes through out college, but it wasn't until many years later that I made the jump to full-time potter.

What are your favorite materials to work with?

Clay, clay and clay. And also stamps. But mostly just clay.

Where so you sell?

Online through my etsy shops, as well as some retail locations.

Share a favorite Christmas memory.

Visiting my aunt and cousins with my family. I was probably about 8. She had a REAL gingerbread house and cats. I stole as much of the gingerbread house as I thought I could get away with, and became very allergic to the cats. So I have alternating memories of being very sick and my older brother getting the most awesome toy ever. Dark Tower by Milton Bradley. An electronic (remember when that was a big deal??!!) board game. As a kid, I was always trying to find the gifts that my parents had hidden. So I ruined the surprise for myself most years.




Today's goodie for the grand prize is...

This Whimsical little cupcake stand! I can't tell you how cut this little guy is in person. The attention to detail is perfect! A fun way to enjoy a muffin in the morning, or a great way to make anyone feel extra special when you serve them a cupcake!

Today's daily prize is a big one!!!!!
This sweet little layered oval necklace with a heart on the top layer. I can oxidize it for the winner if you prefer a rustic finish over the shiny finish. She'll be available in my shop later today if you don't win and just have to have one ;)



So how can you win this sweet necklace?
