Visit product page →We had sex in this room.
Amuse your friends and horrify your family by hanging this classic anywhere in your house. You can go for the expected and hang it in the guest bedroom or my favorite, hang it in the kitchen, the den, the foyer, or anywhere else you may have christened with sexual joy at some point.
Another terrific option is to give it as a hostess gift. You know, just discreetly leave it somewhere in your host's home and see if they ever fess up to having found it. Visiting your parents or grown children? Leave it in the guest room as a thank you gift when you depart. There are so many options to have wicked good fun with it.
Each wall tile is handmade using a high fire white stoneware on my pottery wheel then hand carved using the sgraffito method before being glazed and fired. It's all a lot more involved than that, but this is sort of the gist of it. Each one is completely free-hand carved, no stamps, no sketching, no planning. I just dig in and go.
The back of the tile is curved inward allowing it to be easily hung on a simple nail or screw. It looks like it is floating on the wall creating an interesting level of dimension.
Measures approximately 5" diameter but honestly, that is a guess because I am typing this at home in my pajamas and can't read my own hand written notes on the dimensions.
As always, all orders in the continental US are shipped at a flat rate of $5 because you deserve it! So go ahead and shop to your heart's content. It's only going to be $5.

Visit product page →Sometimes all you need is a little dish. Maybe you're serving dinner and want people to salt the meal themselves with special salt. Perhaps you just want a delicious chocolate truffle to feel extra special when you're setting the mood for some self pampering. Even if you're just looking for a little spot to put your ring while you're doing the dishes, a little something is all you need.
The ever so functional tiny dishes will serve all those purposes and probably a few more you haven't even thought of yet. The small ceramic trinket dishes also make a lovely gift for the tea lover in your life. Imagine gifting these at each place setting of party with a tasty handmade chocolate.
Each handmade set of 4 is made using my signature Canvas glaze.
Every dish measures approximately 2" x 2" and is 5/8" deep.
Your set of 4 tiny dishes will come neatly wrapped in grey tissue and tied with our signature black and white baker's twine. A care card is included.
$5 Flat Rate shipping on all orders in the Continental United States!

Visit product page →Hang the Wine is Bottled Poetry Charcuterie + Cheese Board on the wall or use it to serve tasty appetizers to your friends and family. The one of a kind freehand carved quote by Robert Louis Stevenson will be revealed as you munch away.
Measures approximately 4.5" x 11.5".
I do recommend hand washing your Charcuterie + Cheese board since things bang around quite a bit in the dishwasher. If you choose to use the dishwasher anyway, your pottery will last much longer if you're careful to place it where it won't vibrate or bang against other dishes. Always remove the suede hanging thong before cleaning.
NOTE: you may not receive the exact board featured in the photos but it will be similar and darn cool.
Each piece of pottery is carefully wrapped and packed to ensure safe delivery.

On saleVisit product page →Let go of my ears! I know what I'm doing.
A good friend told me the story of his grandmother saying this to his grandfather. As a little kid he took it to mean she could do it without his mansplaining. Once he was old enough to realize the source of the saying he said he spent a couple minutes disturbed by it before thinking to himself, "Go Grandma!"
To me, it goes right along with that control issue. I've got this. Trust me. I know what I'm doing.

Visit product page →This one is inspired by my step-brother and his wife. They both have a great sense of humor. At a holiday function, she asked (or was it told?) him to get something from the kitchen. His immediate response to the request was, "Stop trying to control me!" and then they both bust up laughing.
It's sort of become a mantra when I find myself in a situation where I feel like someone else is trying to control my actions, the outcome, or micro-managing me. With a people-pleaser attitude it's easy to fall into the trap of allowing someone else to control your narrative.
You can hang this on your wall as a reminder to say no when someone tries to control you or as a warning to anyone who would dare try.
