House Beautiful has been getting more and more beautiful under the expert design and photo direction of Scot Schy. I love the 50 green ideas spread, and am so honored that a gleena wee teacup was included in the mix. Thank you!

big thank you to squam

I am very honored to have been chosen to make cups and tumblers for squam, a magical place where people gather to teach, to learn, to create, and to experience. Elizabeth Duvivier, the founder of squam, and I found each other at the Providence open market this past summer. What a treat to also find a whole community of passionate, dedicated, and talented individuals working alongside Elizabeth to create a place like squam. Thank you to the bloggers who wrote about the cups, and to all who purchased them.

A huge thank you to Christine Chitnis and Tory Williams who worked so hard on the gleena studio tour video. You can view the video by going here.

Now back to the casting table to fill all the squam orders!
