Thank you to everyone who came out for the open house yesterday, ordered online and stopped by today!

Your support means the world to us and is the reason we are able to keep doing this.

The holiday collection is live online and I’m in the studio today making more mugs, more candle holders, more candle containers, more winter trees.

Thank you!!!

When we gather, we do big things! We make big change! We shift things everyone said would never change.

Our annual holiday open house is this Saturday and the theme is “When we gather.”

Today I’m hanging the hand colored, personally illustrated posters in the windows. (For my fellow artists, we love the $5 engineering prints at Fedex Office for printing my illustrations then coloring them by hand.) AI could never ;)

Anyway, if you’re local to Indianapolis, stop by for the open house and celebrate with us when we gather.

If you’re not local, make sure you’re on the Studio Letters mailing list for early access online! The link is in my bio or just head over to gravesco.com

We’ll be closed Thursday for my birthday and Friday so we can transform the store into a blue wave winter wonderland!

Keep celebrating! 💙🌊

Did anyone else have a hard time containing the sense of hope and relief last night?

I’m so fu***ng proud of us, but holy F**K thank you to the organizers who were RELENTLESS.

The nausea all day leading to stunned silence to screaming at the tv like it’s a sportsball game every time another win came in and then the burst of energy I didn’t fully realize was the tension my body has held since he rode that escalator released.

I’m still hope scrolling.

Hope scrolling and prepping for our holiday open house on Saturday.

We have a LOT of work upcoming to hold their feet to the fire and keep moving forward but as the new Senator of Michigan said, money out of politics, money in your pocket and healthcare for all.

I’ll be making 100 companion mugs on Sunday after the open house so all those great mugs Kris and Dave have been posting this week will be made then! (Because we already sold out once this week! Yay and thank you Kris for brightening a truly dreary week!)

What are you feeling today?

Saturday is our annual studio Holiday Open House.

The theme this year is “When we gather…”

When we gather, we do great things. We help each other calm our nervous systems. We laugh. We tell stories. We are reminded we have community.

This week will be busy taking photos, making website listings, deep cleaning the store, setting up trees and hanging garlands. Putting out oodles of new pottery and other merchandise for gift giving.

Until then? I’ll be showing up with bed head, focused on bringing creative visions to life for you.

Join is Saturday in store from 10-6. If you’re not in Indianapolis, make sure you’re on the Studio Letters mailing list at gravesco.com.

We’ll be closed Thursday and Friday this week for your safety as I tear apart the store but if you need something, order online and shoot me a message. We’ll meet you at the door with your order. 🥰

Until then, finish this sentence with what it means to you:

When we gather…

Why are you voting?

Me? Because I don’t want people living in fear of their safety or freedom. Because I think billionaires should pay more taxes. Because healthcare should be a right, not something reserved for people who can afford it. Because civil rights should be non-negotiable. Because I don’t think we should be starting wars over nothing. Because I think gen0cide needs to stop and we should stop funding it. Because I think the social networks should not be gutted to support our military. The list goes on and fu***ng on.

And yes. I wear my thoughts on my mugs. You can, too.

Support small businesses this holiday season and go follow Kris and Dave if you need the rally cry and an emotional support voter. Their post asking why are you voting inspired me to post this.

VOTE! And help other people vote, too.

Can I manufacture pain points? Sure. But why?

Why do that when the alternative is getting to build an honest connection with you centered around what I make?

Why chase trends when you can buy a handmade mug you’ll never want to replace?

Planned obsolescence doesn’t factor in when you buy handmade goods that you connect with on a deeper level.

Buy it because you love it, not because a trend said you should.

While you’re shopping this holiday season, consider small businesses who care about how you interact with what they make more than manipulating you into spending money on something you won’t care about next year.

We’re in this together.

It’s FAFO Saturday at Gravesco.

I’m working on a set of holiday coasters with text transfers and I really don’t want to glaze them. Not out of laziness. I like the idea of them being absorbent.

I’m doing one test with an iron oxide transfer directly on the bisque. I added a layer of olive oil to the coaster before applying the transfer to make it stick. This is the FAFO part. The olive oil will burn off in the firing but of it holds the transfer in place until then it’s a win.

I’ve done this before with a layer of gloss art medium but I don’t want that burning off in the studio. I did that when my kiln was outside, years ago.

Test 2 will be glazing the tile then doing the transfer and transfer firing in our typical image transfer process.

Test 3 will be making a screenprint stencil using my cutter and heat transfer vinyl to make the screen then a bit of glaze smooshed through the screen.

It’ll be a few days before I have all the results but here we go!

The “When We Gather” Holiday open house is Saturday, November 7th. Mark your calendar!
