I cleaned up my studio today. Hopefully this gets me motivated to start working next weekend. I think having to pick up and clean my studio has been making me not motivated. I don't like to work in a messy area. Now that is is cleaned up I have no excuses not to work. I have been sketching ideas in my sketch book today. Now I am motivated to start making. Bring on the clay!!!

Apologies
Sorry I haven't blogged for a long time. I promise not to let this happen again. I did do a few things since the last time I blogged.
I invested in some business cards. I ordered them from Vista Print.
I did another glaze firing. This one turned out better then the first one.
I also did a Holiday Sale at my Aunt Beth's work. This was the first official sale I did. I have done this sale in the past when I was in college. I always have a good day at this sale. It isn't a big sale it is just for the people in her office. Hopefully I will get to do this sale again next year. It felt good to be selling my artwork again.
This all happened in November. December I really did not work in the studio much. I was busy at work and worked a couple of Saturdays. So when I had a day off I did not want to make pottery at home. My husband and I also made a trip out to Las Vegas to visit his parents for the holidays. We always have a great time there. Now I have to get motivated now that January is over. I really don't have a good excuse for not working in the studio in January. I think I was just lazy and with it being so cold outside I just didn't feel motivated. Today I am going to clean up the studio and get it put back together. Hopefully next weekend I will start throwing again. I would like to do a sale in the spring so I need to get moving because spring is going to sneak up on me.
