Happy Friday everyone! Welcome to our second edition of the new 'Etsy Finds'. We want to showcase more handmade work and promote small artists around the world so we've started a new section on the blog!

We also have a special sale currently happening over on the site so make sure to check it out as stock levels are starting to run low!

Have a great weekend and stay warm!

Weekly Roundup 29 May

Happy Friday everyone!

There is no denying the fact that winter is truly here with us waking up to -2 degrees this frosty morning!

This past week we were in Auckland for the first Hatch'd Boutique Fair - we had a fantastic time! It was lovely to meet so many of you and other fellow creatives.

Our next market is the Auckland Fair, on the 14th of June at Shed 10 in Auckland. It's a fantastic event held twice a year - look forward to seeing some of you there!

Hope you all keep warm this long weekend.

Weekly Roundup 15 May

Happy Friday everyone - I hope you're all safe and dry and that crazy storm yesterday. Sorry we didn't end up having a roundup last week. We had some unexpected power outages in the studio with cabling work and had to take an unplanned day away from the computer.

This Saturday we will be at the Tamahere Country Market - just on the main path when you enter - from 8:30 am - 1:00pm. And next weekend we will be at the new Hatch'd Boutique Fair in Auckland which runs from all day Saturday through Sunday. Tickets can be purchased through their website and is located in Ponsonby Central, upstairs in the Sapphire Room.

This weeks roundup is dedicated to, you guessed it, ceramics. As you may have heard me mention before, I have a big soft spot in my heart for handmade ceramics. As a kid I dabbled with the material but never did anything with it. So this winter I thought it was time I found myself a new hobby and signed up to an 8 week course that meets one night a week for 3 hours. I'm three weeks in and completely addicted. Thus far I've created 3 bowls, 1 jug, and 2 beakers. Here are some people who have inspired me along the way.

1. Karolina Grudniewska of KaroArt in Dublin
2. Lisa Jones of Pigeon Toe in Portland
3. Renee Boyd Ceramics in New Zealand
4. Sam Nichols Pottery in New York
5. Katia Carletti in Adelaide
6. Georgia Leiby of Center Ceramics in New York
7. Robert Gordon Ceramics in Australia
