I am still alive

I've just been doing so many other things, one of which will be starting a new blog in place of this one. Quick rundown of my life over the past (nearly) year: Moved to Richmond KY last November where I can finally concentrate on my ceramics, got a "real" bill-paying job, broke up with boyfriend of 9 years (eep!), got a car (wooooo!!!) and am financially independent for the first time in my life, and have my own apartment. Finally. Townhouse style, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, my own washer and dryer, woo! Just me and my doggy, Zazz. Still working on getting a lot of furniture, haha. Right now I have very little. I recently got loriphillipsceramic.etsy.com going just a short while ago and already have two sales. I've stopped using tabmade.etsy.com. I wanted to concentrate on getting my actual name out there, ya know? Also me and some good ceramics friends put together an exhibition of our work last spring and I'll have pics of that soon. But I won't be using this blog anymore, except to let you all know when the new one is up and running. I have missed you all! I hope at least some of you are still out there to read this, haha. I feel like I've been under a rock.

I'm still here!

I've not updated in so long! Life is moving right along. I got a job that I will be carpooling to with a friend, which is such awesome news for me. I start on the 1st. Now I can officially move out of Columbia KY and live up here by campus with a good friend. When she moves out in January I will take over her apartment. I can make my work in the ceramics studio on campus and all will be well in the long run. I have decided to make a new Etsy under my actual name for my ceramics work. It will be a little bit before that happens, I'm still working on details and such. So yeah, that's what up for now. I've just now gotten my computer up here with me so I'll try not to neglect you anymore, haha. Maybe I'll bring my camera to the studio tomorrow and show ya what I've been working on. :)

Am I ever going to have a kiln?

I've been avoiding this post because I have to tell everyone that I still haven't been able to get my kiln. Something about someone going out of business so now one of the parts that is used in the kiln is more money, making the kiln over $500. So I still don't have enough. Sad day. And yes I've checked craigslist and ebay over and over and over. They do not have what I need.
I go back to Richmond really soon to house sit again though, so I will be job hunting hard core in an effort to finally move there. Then I won't need a kiln right away since I can work in the studio on campus. Yay. :)
In good new, I do have two new photo's up in my photo Etsy.

I'll have a kiln soon!

Finally, holy crap. I made enough money from demonstrating at the pottery festival to get a small test kiln. It will be this one:


That is all for now. Tomorrow I have a 25 pound block of porcelain to reconstitute. :p

Pottery Festival

So, apparently these last few weeks of "putting all my effort into Etsy" has turned into just making things for the upcoming pottery festival. Oh well. Anything that doesn't sell there I will probably put on Etsy, so no worries.
These are pictures I took of the ceramics studio here at the university a couple of years ago. I almost forgot I had them. Thought I would share.







If your in Kentucky you can come to the pottery festival the 12th and 13th of this month in Richmond. It's on Lancaster Ave, right next EKU's campus. You wouldn't be able to miss it, but if you need directions, just send me a message or something. :) I'll be one of the demonstrators for the festival, come say hi. There is also a Kids Fest going on at the same time, right next to the Pottery Festival.
