Come for a huge selection of gifts for everyone who eats, cooks or just loves beautiful, useful handmade ware! I even have brand new ornaments for the tree! Come see how I make all this stuff!

I have one more show in 2021 in Columbus Ohio called “Columbus Winterfair” held indoors at the Bricker Multipurpose Building at 717 E. 17th Avenue. Its Friday, Saturday and Sunday December 3, 4 & 5.

There is also a lovely but limited selection of goodies online: Etsy.Antiochpottery.com. order now to allow time for shipping. Thanks!
