Planting in Pigeon Toe

Photo by Small Stump

We love seeing our handmade vessels serving their purpose. Small Stump created the most beautiful succulent arrangement in one of our custom-glazed tuck pots and I had to share an image.

lifeandlimbI also dropped by Life and Limb today to hand off some tripod pots and saw these small tripod pots providing a home for teeny tiny cacti. Excuse the crummy iPhone photo, you get the idea.

We’ve been very focused on work for the garden and plants lately and are excited to soon reveal a few new designs – including a hanging planter with braided leather strings and another we’ve dubbed the “marsupial pot”. Stay tuned…

New Design – Kerr Votive Lantern

lantern_daylight_glowPerfect for a summer patio or an outdoor event (Midsummer wedding perhaps?), our Kerr Votive Lantern is a fun new take on a product of old. We  made a mold of a 4″ high mason jar, cast it in translucent porcelain, added black galvanized steel wire to hang and a votive, and ta da! Available here for purchase, discounts are given for buying as a set of two. I will be hanging a bunch of these in a walnut tree this September, under which my love and I will exchange vows.

Thanks to everyone who came out yesterday for the street fair, we had a blast and loved talking with all of you.

Mississippi Street Fair

logo2We are participating in the Mississippi Street Fair here in Portland, OR next Saturday, July 11. We are sharing a booth in the Local Market with our fabulous production assistant Heidi Sowa, who will be selling her wares as well. Come down and say hi, buy a garden stake or 4, and stay for the food, music, and other amazing vendors in this 4th annual block party in my favorite PDX neighborhood.
