Hot Seats

One of Bill's first ceramic garden seats sits in front of our kitchen Morso woodstove next to the table, and serves as the "hot seat" as its' clay body warms. Others have joined it lately as the weather has been extreme this winter. Bill made the tiles below the stove forty yrs. ago.

Merry Christmas Mode

Merry Christmas. Our tree with my old family ornaments and ones we made. I love the beeswax Santas & angels in red and honey colors. Candy molds were used with our honey bee's wax Bill collected and the deep red wax was made with fine German crayons.

Below are Bill, Christian & Leif "tending the bees".

Christmas corsages made from vintage & new parts for the tree & packages.

Winter's Wood

Four stacks deep.

Our family has always split wood for winters here, and now have three nearby houses with stacks. Christian splits, Leif hauls logs, Bill stacks with 2 wheelbarrows and I run the splitter. This Sunday we split 6 hrs. at Christian's farm and my house. Hooray!

Garden Stone & Seat

Bill sold this lovely garden stone and seat yesterday at the Takaezu Studio Open House to a young family and world accomplished ceramicist, respectively. Nice endorsement!

Seat bought by Maxwell Mustardo and the sculpture of his that we have purchased...
