Handmade Pottery & Chunky Bracelet

Sarah and I went thrifting today. If you ever do this, you know it's shopping as random as it gets--and today's theme was pottery, pottery, and hey, pottery. This fun loot was purchased at two thriftstores for a total of $14. And to those creative people who created these: Laura, Dean, arc, Gabriel & Maria E., I thank you. It was a special day when you were in a pottery class body bent over to handcraft these pieces, no doubt it was an adventure. . .maybe it wasn't perfect, somehow they ended up in a Corona thriftstore. . .but they ended up happily to a couple of girls who appreciated the color & creativity. We appreciate the imperfect. I poured myself a cup of coffee in one of these mugs this evening and giggled because of the perfect imperfections, there's a comfortableness about someone's creative piece in my hands and home.
Made by Maria E., possibly my favorite of the day!
Did I mention that Sarah is a Master Ninja Bead Jeweler? She made me this chunky bracelet. I think Babysitting for Jewelry might be on my agenda!
