This weekend we were out on a forage for interesting and unusual driftwood. One of the nicest spots around here for this, is down at the Gulf, off of Fort Morgan Road (west of Gulf Shores).
I love these little jaunts. The beach is just full of unusual finds, interesting patterns, and unexpected textures. It is a great place to seek inspiration and come up with some fresh ideas. Check out the section of sand in the photo above, formed by the ebbing of the water. It reminded me of a Japanese Zen Garden.
Here are a few other photos.

We were contacted last fall by the folks at AlabamaGoods.com who wanted to add some of our pottery to their shop online.
Opened in 2007, the AlabamaGoods.com site is focused on selling items from Alabama, ranging from pickles to pottery to clothing items.
Pictured here, our stoneware pottery mug has been paired up with some O’Henry’s Coffees‘ Sumatra Gold Roast and offered as a corporate gift box set on the AlabamaGoods.com site: http://alabamagoods.com/clay-mug-coffee.html
