Only two more sleeps till Fresh Fish! This was my living room last night. (Cat included for scale.)

I brought out every box of pottery, electrical cords, and lights that I have, and went through them. Organized pottery by lines, put all the booth and selling stuff (invoice book, pens, price tags) together. Threw out all the crumpled newspaper and bubblewrap that wasn’t actually around anything. Repacked it all so there are no more half-empty boxes taking up room. In the end, I got the total volume of pottery-related stuff down by half.
(Oh, alright, the cat’s included for cuteness, too.)

My name is Maaike Charron, and I'm a potter in St. John's, Newfoundland. I started fiddling around with pottery in summer 2006, when I was told volunteering in the local clay studio would get me free studio time. I mostly taught myself, spending a lot of time poring over books, magazines and websites, and occasionally pestering the more advanced (but very helpful) potters around me with questions. After about two years, I decided I'd gotten good enough to go into business for myself. This blog, started after my first big craft fair, was created to document the process of becoming a wondrously succesful craftsperson. (Or it will document How Not To Do It. We'll see.)
