It’s finally here! After many more months than I anticipated, the virtual High Five Video is here! I think you’ll like what you see, even if it is a little long. I had a lot of fun putting it together! Good to have something to do on cold days like today.
In other news, I will be bisque firing the first batch of rewards this weekend, and will be spending next week glazing and getting started on the second batch of reward ceramics. It’s been cold in the studio, much to cold to coat y hands in water and clay, until the last week or so, but the forecast looks good for the next couple of weeks so I’ll be busting my tail as weather permits.
What have I been doing with my time when I’m not elbow deep in clay? Glad you asked… I’ve set up a first draft of my etsy shop, which you can visit here:

This will be dramatically overhauled once the backer rewards are finished, but for now, if you want to add to your shipment, you can purchase made-to-order ceramics here. Once there is an overstock of items, I will list them individually.
I’ve also been updating my blog, so stop on by and click the follow button to stay up to date on all that dribble too! There I’ve been dreaming of permaculture and planning this year’s garden…
Business cards came in the mail last week and I’ve got my eye on some March 1st deadlines for juried craft shows and sales around the front range. I’m looking forward to getting everything under the tent and ready to sell. If all goes according to plan you can find me this Spring and Summer at the following locations:
Boulder Farmers Market (Arts & Crafts days only – see website (http://www.boulderfarmers.org/) for dates.
Longmont Farmers Market (Arts & Crafts days only – see website (http://www.boulderfarmers.org/) for dates.
Louisville Street Faire - All summer long on Friday evenings!!!
I’ll also be concentrating on getting my wares into some local cafes and boutiques, so next time you’re hankerin for some handmade ceramics, be sure to look around for fAi(e)rSAND! You can also stop by my facebook place page to “like” it and keep up to date on the goings on as they happen. I’ll be posting the High Five Video there as well!!! I’ll also be sure to post there and here when the website is up and running. I own the domains and you can email me at ben@faiersandceramics.com, but there’s no site to visit as yet.

Last but not least, that party I mentioned is coming up! I’m shooting for next Saturday night, February 4th. If you are on the front range, or feel like traveling please come on by and see the studio! My hope is that I will do the glaze firing on Friday of next week and be able to open the kiln by Saturday night to see what goodies await inside. If you chose a Sipping Mug or Salt Bowl as your reward, you can even take your pick of the litter and fill it full of wine!!! Much love to you all. I feel so incredibly fortunate, and it’s all because of you!
PEACE!
