upintheairsomewhere's Profile

Bio

I'm a Chicago based maker-of-things.

I'm creating a line of housewares inspired by the beautiful forms found in industrial architecture. Water towers, warehouses, factories, and silos are abundant in Chicago and endlessly fascinating to me. Although I work in different mediums (paper mache, ceramic, fiber, etc.), my work has always been primarily focused on volume and form rather than ornamentation and surface. The simplicity and utility of the industrial landscape is a constant influence on my work.

**Bulk Orders**

If you are interested in purchasing a bulk order of an item for an event (like the votives or small paper vessels) please contact me and I'll let you know the bulk discount for that item and the projected turn around time.


**Custom Orders**

I'm happy to take custom requests!

Please be aware that all my ceramic firings happen over the last two weekends of the month. In order to have a custom ceramic piece shipped out at the beginning of the month, the order needs to be placed by the 15th. If you place an order after that, it will be shipped the first week of the following month.

Paper will be completed within a week of placing a custom order.
