To my Colorado Springs Friends

The incredible fires outside of Colorado Springs this summer came very very close to the Rock Ledge Ranch, the site of the Holly Berry House Folk Art Festival that takes place in September.  Our promoter, Kathy Reid, has worried that people may assume that there was damage there that would impact the show. The short answer is no. Everything is going on as planned, and my helpers and I are busy busy making stuff for you! I hope I get to see all of my long-time customers this year. I love my weekend in Colorado! 

A selection of 3 dimensional pumpkins, made with the help of my big sister, Peggy Clark. I do the designing,she does the cutting and welding and then I take my plasma torch and add the stars and spirals...we both end up looking like chimney sweeps. Working with metal ain't for wimps!

finished and ready for packing.

I love this fancy funky thing!

Three little green mirrors I finished today. They'll be packed into the truck for the September shows.

Jack's headed to Frankfort!

Fall Shows

Hey there! Sorry for the long pause between posts...it's been a busy summer and our 3 weeks "off" in August were filled with designing and building great stuff for our fall shows. I didn't realize that I hadn't updated my show schedule since forever, but we WILL be at Frankfort, Il, Little Falls, Minnesota (please note that we have a new booth location, check the show list for the booth number!), our favorite show at the Rock Ledge Ranch in Colorado Springs, Colorado and the huge Cranberry Festival in Warrens, Wisconsin. We will be bringing lots of new awesome stuff! Pics to follow, but expect new sign designs and Halloween whimsy. Come say hi!!
