Here are a few photos from last weekend, fingers crossed for sun this Saturday and Sunday please.

See the website to download a map. See you there!

Elephant spotting!

I've been elephant spotting today. Has anyone else seen the decorated elephants that aim to raise support for the Asian elephant, which is threatened with extinction?

I only saw two and could only photograph one as there was a dude sitting on the other one which would have ruined the photo, I wish I had asked him to move now.

This one was amazing, it had lots of little circular mirrors on it. Can't wait to see more on Monday when I'm back in London.

Check out the website which has a handy map of their locations.

Caversham Arts Trail

It is less than a week until the first Caversham Arts Trail starts and I've been busy cleaning my studio ready for visitors. I think I may have cleaned it too much so I'm going to have to make a few things this week or it will look like I don't really use it.

The Caversham Arts Trail starts on Saturday 8th May and continues on Sunday 9th May, Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th May. All venues are open from 11am to 5pm. Please pop along to any venues you can, I'll be at venue 5 along with Machi of Magpienest. We will also be having join in sessions to make pottery and jewellery, check the website for details of demonstrations and events throughout the trail.

You can download the map here. Here is a little snippet of work from the artists on the trail, see more on the Caversham Arts Trail website.

Don't forget that it's also the West Berkshire and North Hampshire open studios from 1st to 30th May. This year Charles Burns who is also taking part in the Caversham Open Studios is also part of the West Berkshire and North Hampshire open studios, you can see the days that you can visit his studio here, you won't be disappointed!

Glazing.......

It's been a busy weekend of glazing. Glazed 160 of these little beauties today! Also trying out some new glazes, in two days I'll get to see the outcome, can't wait.

Listed some dishes in my NOTHS shop and my folksy shop. Look out for new glazes coming soon.
