Hudsonville Septemberfest is in the books...and as tired as my trailer is and I am....retirement??

It's been a long time since I have had the trailer completely empty....and set up on time for the early shoppers 8:15am.....and on top of that not sleeping since 3 am....I am ready to sleep now.  It was another good show...thank you to all my loyal customers.  I will let you know what I think?? the future holds.

Septemberfest Arts & Crafts Show....my one and only show of the year.

...busy loading the trailer and getting ready for this coming Sat.  Hudsonville Fair Grounds and the Hudsonville Chr. School Arts and Crafts Show.  This is a great show.  4 barns full and lots of outdoor vendor's too.  A great way to kick off the autumn season.....

...taking a lot of windows and frames...chalkboards and more...

...fruits of the spirit!

old doors....

my personal favorite...the old door message center.  Great place to leave a message, hang the kid's art work, pictures, and hang your hat too.  Check it out  Saturday September 21 from 9 am til 3 pm....all the crafts are indoors in the barns and produce and pumpkins are outside.  Dress for the elements, come and enjoy fall!!

Fall is almost here........................

Fall is upon us, new items daily.  More skinny shelves.

Twig stars...large and small...some with glitter and some not.  The shelf unit in the background would make a great tv unit, glass shelves for display, and storage underneath behind closed doors...on sale now...$100.00.  Has a timber and tile look.

Nailed tile signs.....

Battery tealights...a must for holiday decorations and I also carry the extra batteries.

Check it out. 

DownSizing the hobby/business!!

After more than 30 years of pottery I am downsizing my hobby/business...and I have For Sale a Brent SR36  slab rolling table...very good condition.  I started out with a rolling pin but this table was the life saver.

 If you are a serious slab potter this is one of the most helpful tools....a must have.  Handles 25 pounds of clay with breaking into a sweat.

Attached to the rolling table and sold with the rolling table is a Bailey Manual Clay extruder...also very good condition...

 and it includes a full set of dies....23 dies, 2 plain dies and extra wood pieces for the extruder. Makes the perfect coils, tubes, square tubes, square coils  etc. very handy tool.  Asking $2500 for the table and extruder.

 I also am selling a Gare 1818 electric kiln with manual switches....It has hardly been used and is in very good condition.  Comes with 2 shelves and 12 stilts.  Asking #250.00 for the kiln.

The wheel is sold.....someone will be very happy in Delaware.

The skinny's are coming.....

The skinny's.  Perfect for kid's room, bathroom, perfect for DVD storage and so much more.  Varying heights but all 5" deep.  They are a true "recycled" made by hand in Holland product.  All used lumber...nothing new here.  They will be on their way to Not So SHabby very shortly.  The benches are great entryway seating...both 36" long and 18 1/2" tall...recycled, sturdy, and primitive. All these skinny's have sold but there are new ones in the booth at Not So Shabby in Holland.  I still have the primitive benches.
