I’d almost forgotten it was March and time to move to a new cup. I was so enjoying the February roses and love cup. This month, I’m using (starting today — this first week has been overwhelming) a cup I picked up at the Maryland Renaissance Faire last fall. I fell in love at first sight when I saw it in the Shore Fire Pottery booth. Shore Fire Pottery is owned and operated by Dan & Rhonda Heinecke. I wanted to ad a link to them but couldn’t find a website. (If anyone knows of one let me know and I’ll add it in). They do wonderful work and it’s really different. A lot of it is organic, meaning there are impressions of leaves and flowers in the pottery along with other elements. They also have the usual dragon and fairy pottery — but it’s this mug (the only one in the booth) that called out to me.<\/p>\n
