All I want for Christmas
Finders Keepers was a cool adventure for me but one vendor stood out from the crowd in a very clever but understated way.

NZ Fashion Export Scholarship Awards
Last year I designed the awards - A wonderful idea from Mapihi Opai Fashion NZ (FINZ) and so I was chuffed to be asked again this year.
Bit of a challenge getting all that onto the Crown Lynn dinner plates but a nice result I think...Congrats to Lonely Hearts, the 2009 winner!

Spooky old Wrath
I just pulled out a third Wrath plate from a bake to complete a Seven Deadly Sins assemblage and for the third time a mysterious hairline has appeared on the edge- WTF?
Now and again this does happen but three times with the same word over three consecutive days.
This set just doesn't want to be completed and I'm starting to think there is something weird going on in my studio......it's almost Halloween!

New Big Cartel stuff
Big Cartel was set up for the small business person/ artist/ bands/ crafters to sell less than 100 items with no fees and a direct shopping experience for the customer. My Big Cartel shop links directly to paypal and I will be loading it up for Christmas shoppers especially as I've decided NOT to customize this Christmas.....way too time consuming folks, sorry!

Vandalizing/ modifying/reinventing old china

Thanks to Jeff Fleming- a repeat trixie offender
for the info.
He visited the show and thought of me,
awww that's sweet!

Art burns
Pulling plates out of a hot oven is an occupational hazard for me and I've been burned many times when just grabbing a tea towel instead of putting my mitt on.
This time however my mitt caused me to burn myself as it caught on the hot oven rack above which stuck to my skin and came out of the oven along with the plate I was carrying...
It might be time I bought some burn cream for my studio!

M J and Madonna
Best MJ tribute t-shirt on Etsy so far belongs to Elektra of Coup in NYC. She should know a thing or two about t-shirt designs as Madonna wears her RIDE equestrian themed one as you can see. Free global shipping is also a winner in my book, I wish I could offer it but me plates are a tad too heavy!

Megs Wedding gift
Those of you who follow the Rock news will know that Meg White from the White Stripes married Jackson Smith guitarist son of Patti Smith a couple of weekends ago. A friend of mine and former road manager for the Stripes was invited to the wedding in Nashville and so took a plate as a present. Apparently presented to her while she was in her pjs this of course was another wasted photo op, so you'll just have to take my word for it The plate in question, Shameless, and she opened it in her pyjamas...wasted, wasted photo op...man John next time please whip out the camera, be shameless for trixies sake!
