Thank you all!

Today I washed my tent for the season. It was a nice day to sit back and think about all of the cool people I got to meet, interesting places I got to go, and great art I got to see!

If you’ve supported me this year, thank you. With you, I can make art I love and share it with many people.

Last Push

The end is coming! Of the year that is har har har. I’m restocking some of my tiny zines for Saturday the 16th, the Misfits Market in Arlington. It honestly blows me away how people have responded to my tiny zine spells and poetry this year! It’s humbling and delightful at the same time, that coming back to paper arts after so long has been positive.

Shipping is Horrible

The BANE of my online shop existence is shipping. It’s NOT intuitive, and shipping calculators don’t really account for “a bunch of extra padding that makes this item an inch bigger and an ounce heavier”. That being said, it was brought to my attention that my shop was charging outrageous shipping prices. I had no idea. I try to keep up with it, but stuff gets by me. It’s given me a HUGE pause, wondering how many people put something in their cart, only to be immediately put off by a $60 charge for mailing three zines. The absolute horror.

I HOPE that my day of tinkering, measuring, weighing, and categorizing has fixed this issue. If you’ve ever come across exorbitant shipping charges in my shop, please know that while I cannot afford to offer free shipping, I do my best to keep things reasonable, even if betrayed by the computer! As always, local pickup is free, and don’t hesitate to let me know if you think a shipping charge is way too high, even for pottery. 🙂

Grand Re-Opening!

Grand Phorest Goblet

HOORAY! Today faeriehive.com officially re-opens as a fancy new online shop! New items, new payment methods, and items I used to only sell in-person are now in the shop! It’s so great I can only use exclamation marks to end my sentences!

I am so excited for this upgrade; it’s taken some long hours at the computer, but well-worth the effort. It is my hope that you can find that special piece of pottery that helps make your day-to-day life just a little bit nicer. ☺

Thank you for all your support, here’s to more magickal pottery!

Production in a Pandemic

Goodness! It’s been a while, eh? This year has been a doozy, and I’ve had my own share of “How in the world do I deal with this?” moments. Every single show I had on the docket for the year has been cancelled, sadly. I love going to shows! I love meeting people and making things that make them happy. The moment someone finds “their” mug or plate is a precious moment of joy for me. It’s a delicate balance of staying positive for next year and trying to stay grounded in reality. I’m sure most people can relate to that!

Because I suddenly find myself with no shows or festivals to prepare for, I’ve turned my attention to a project that’s been on the back burner for years: an Oracle Deck. We’ve entered the harvest season, and I’m starting to see the fruits of my planning and drawing. I share with you a collage of in-progress photos: sketches, prototypes, computer drawings, lists of drawings to complete. It is my goal to have a finished product in-hand before the holiday season!

I hope that all folks are doing well during this tumultuous time: the wonderful thing about the world is that it’s natural state is of one in balance. May you find your OWN balance and peace.
