"Your life is a piece of clay. Don't let anyone else mold it for you."

by Kelli Pope



Ta-da!!!!!!!! My first kiln opening was this week. BOY was I excited!!!!! No stuck beads, no blow ups, no meltdowns!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I just have to make my own bead trees to maximize the space in my kiln.


Seeing your creation in the final stage is absolute bliss!!!!


"There are no happier people on this planet than those who decide that they want something, define what they want, get hold of the feeling of it even before it's manifestation and then joyously watch the unfolding, as piece by piece by piece, it begins to unfold. That's the feeling of your hands in the clay" - Abraham
