The Potter's Studio was a fall/winter "fancy" in 2000. Lady Jane created this marvelous structure of stained glass. I knew instantly that it would not be a typical greenhouse; this wonderful structure was destined to be just a little different...
I studied it most every day and let my mind wander. I had purchased a potter's wheel from Craig Roberts of Green County Pottery Works...and so the ideas came together in the form of a Potter's Studio! Perfect! My potter could work in ideal surrounding!
Marcia Backstrom created my potter based on her imagination and my description. Craig was pleased to supply pottery pieces, clay and accessories. And the rest of the studio came together with the help of Earth and Tree Miniatures, Darrell Williams of Williams Wood Works, Barb Plevan, Jeanetta Kendall and Hammer-n-Smith.
Although the Potter's Studio is not a complicated piece, it was enormously fun to create and certainly is a showpiece in my home! The studio was featured in the January 2000 issue of Miniature Collector.
