November & December 2007

Howdy K Wilks,

The Holiday Season is upon us. We've brought in extras of items that are great for gifts.  They're also at competitively low prices!!!!  But, never forget that we also have gift-certificates that you can collect for a larger purchase, such as the workshop you really want to go to or the new wheel or slab roller.     

There are also some great events to attend such as the Boston Mountain Potters Association Holiday party, and any one of the many artist group sales or private sales in our area.  Check out all the wonderful work being created locally, and as always, bring a friend or two along to share it with.  See below for a list of a few of the ones I have heard of.  

Oh, and we are open for your convenience 7 days a week from now through Dec 24 then we will be closed Dec 25 through Jan 1 2008 to recover!

Save on everything in Stock There's a growing trend of products being made to sell, not to use and that is why you won't find some products in our building. Our goal is not to be the biggest, it's to be the best. When a company gets so large that the owners never see the people that are supporting them. It's just not the same. We want to see you, and to be a advocate for our customers.
Offer Expires: Hopefully NEVER
