Penelope's Pots
Over twenty-five years creating handmade, one of a kind, functional pottery. I still have one of my first pots that I made that year way back when.
My first encounter with clay and pottery was at Zion Heights Junior High school in Toronto when I was in grade 7 (I'm old so this is going back to the late 1970's!). I took an after school class that was mostly hand building but we also got to have a go on a stand up potter's wheel. Nothing fancy, no finishing to the pot or trimming but we did get to throw and then glaze. I have been actively work
Still making and firing and decorating all in preparation for this event! Can't wait to see everyone there again this year. This is the third time Penelope's Pots will be at the Oxford Renaissance Festival
September 27, 28 and 29 (so not quite THIS weekend!)
I often say I need to chose a lighter craft - especially when packing or unpacking my pottery. Today I am glad to have work that isn't blowing away with every gust of wind! My vendor neighbours haven't been so lucky.
Hamilton Pagan Pride Day
Fresh out of the kiln today in preparation for the Hamilton Pagan Pride Day tomorrow!
Question.....
Are we using pottery tools on play dough or do I use play dough tools on my pottery?
Asking for a friend. 😁
This will be my first Quarter Auction as a vendor. I had a ton of fun at the past quarter auctions I've attended for other charities. This one is close to my heart as I work at Backus-Page House Museum as their education coordinator. It's my other full time job!
Come out and support the Museum and have some fun! 🍁
Final day of three here at pirate fest in Guelph. Fingers crossed that sales are better today. 🤞

Ever wonder what I do with the profit from my many markets?
Well, besides buying more clay to make more "stuff".... I recently upgraded my square machine. Now I'm all set to take more of your money, more easily! *insert evil laugh*
