The Imagine Lovely Studio Tour

























Its been three years between posts. True. Three years! Geez that time has seriously flown. I've been so busy learning and making and trying to balance my passion and excitement about ceramics with my family and my home commitments... I just didn't have time to write! Now my youngest child bless his beautiful heart has started school and I am beginning to enjoy a bit more spaciousness in my work life.

And I'm looking forward to doing more writing and journaling of my process. So I thought I would start with this series of beautiful photos shot by the lovely Ali of Smith & Archer. Ali came to shoot me working in my home studio which was actually the 'guest mudroom' of our strawbale home. After exactly none of our friends used the proposed guest mudroom (they all came around the side and walked straight in the glass sliding door) it didn't take me long to take over this little cosy space. It has a beautiful view of the sky which is extremely important to me (a large chunk of my work day is spent staring at the sky) and its close to the action in the house which gives me a lot of freedom to work whilst multi-tasking home and family jobs. 

I love the way family and my home has influenced my work. For instance I rarely throw as I don't often have the time to spend a full day at the wheel. By the time you get set up, throw enough pots to make it worth it and then clean up (and I am a messy thrower) you really need a full day, something as rare as hens teeth in my world. So I've built my practice around hand forming. This allows me to do as much or as little as I need in a session and come back to do touch ups in the middle of cooking dinner, or after reading books with my kids. The kitchen table is often covered with projects in various stages of completion and the kids love getting involved. the real beauty of this is the end product which i think is a true reflection of me, my life and my personal taste- everything is wonky, everything is one off and everything is obviously and unapologetically handmade!

  8. If you find Yahoo Mail isn't syncing, you should first ensure that you have a reliable internet connection. Follow the various methods mentioned in this post if that's not helping. If the problem occurs due to a low Yahoo Mail server, check its status on downdetector.com. Another reason can be the incorrect Yahoo Mail sync settings. So, ensure that you have correctly configured the sync settings and have turned the sync on. Further, disable the security program on your device and check if the issue is resolved. Moreover, turn off the Windows Defender Security Center or delete your Yahoo Mail account from the device and add it again.

  9. By installing Yahoo Mail on their Android phones, Yahoo users can stay connected with their email accounts 24/7. However, an instance occurs when Yahoo Mail Loading Slowissue arises on Android. To resolve this issue, ensure that you have the latest version of the Yahoo Mail app and operating system installed on your device. Then, clear the cache and app data of the Yahoo Mail app on your Android device. You can then refresh the memory of the Yahoo app by force-stopping and restarting it. If all these solutions do not solve the issue, the last resort is to uninstall and reinstall the Yahoo app and then if the issue has gone away.
