Top shop for gifts.
Buyers bought gifts from this shop and gave them 5-star reviews!
Announcement
Have been busy making and painting a series of new Planters, Vases and Teapots of various sizes, which I will be posting to my Etsy Shop over the next few weeks. I have also, just completed and shipped a number of commissioned pieces so if you see something in my SOLD file, that takes your fancy, please contact me and I can make you something similar. All my pieces are hand drawn and hand painted so no two will ever be exactly the same!
Impressionistic, Joyful, Vibrantly colored whimsical Faces and Designs adorn my Funky Functional Pottery and Paintings.
I try to incorporate the Shapes of my Pottery into One of a Kind Works of Art that will add a splash of color and whimsy to your homes and/or gifts.
I have turned a Hobby that I Love into a Business that I Love even more. I endeavor to pass this love onto my customers.

4 out of 5 starsUnfortunately this package seems to have been lost in transit so I'm not able to review the purchase. The shop owner has been good to communicate with and try to help track down the package. It doesn't look like the post will be able to find it though. Very sad to not be able to enjoy this piece.

5 out of 5 starsUpon its arrival, we had the wonderful experience of actually loving a piece even more than we did when we viewed it online.
It is bright and happy. Created with intelligent knowledge of color and line gesture. JUST WONDERFUL!
Care also extended to the great attention to craftsmanship and the labored effort involved in its packing.
Great experience. 😀 -

Accepted payment methods
Returns and exchanges
I package my shipments accordingly, usually double boxing and cushioning with bubble wrap.
If your item does arrive damaged, please contact me within 3 working days to discuss our options. I will replace the Broken Item or issue a Refund upon receiving proof of Damage. I will absorb the replacement shipping cost. PLEASE NOTE that because my Pottery is FRAGILE and I am basically Insuring myself against Breakage(the cost to insure against breakage through Fed Ex or UPS is prohibitive) my packages will be Larger than the Item Ordered, which is reflected in my SHIPPING COSTS.
If you are not happy with your Purchase FOR ANY OTHER REASON, please contact me within 3 working days of receiving your item. I will refund the Purchase Price, less any Etsy and Paypal Fees after it is sent back in it's Original Condition. The shipping cost is NOT refundable and the return shipping is the Buyer's responsibility. Custom Orders or Commissioned Pieces are NOT REFUNDABLE.
Payment
Your Purchases will be shipped after confirmation of Payment has been received.
If payment is not received within 3 Days of your order, I will have to cancel the order.
Shipping
back to my customer. I will also Refund Extra Shipping Charges for multiple Purchases Shipped together. I am Happy to quote prices for Faster services if they are required.
I ship promptly within 2 to 3 days of receiving payment (I live in the country and don't go to town every day) I will send you a confirmation email after your order has been shipped. I use Canada Post for all shipments, which can take up to two weeks for some destinations. Canada Post offers up to $100.00 insurance for loss and I will purchase that insurance. If you would prefer a faster shipping time or another carrier ie Fed Ex or UPS, please contact me for an additional shipping quote.
Shipping is my Biggest Challenge. I try to keep my prices as low as possible. Due to the high costs of fuel prices, shipping costs have increased substantially through Canada Post. I try to reuse strong shipping cartons, so although they may not be as pretty as I would like, I don't have to pay extra for them and I pass the savings onto my customers. I package my Ceramic Artwork extremely well to keep it safe, which does increase the size and thus the cost of my shipping.
Buyer is responsible for any Customs Fees/Taxes if they occur.
International Customers: Due to the Significant Variations in Shipping Costs to Countries other than Canada and USA , I will supply a quote of Shipping options after receiving Purchase Inquiries. I am sorry for the additional inconvenience that this my cause my customers!
Additional policies and FAQs
If you need a Functional or Decorative Item to match an existing Colour Scheme or Design in your home, please contact me to discus your options.
I do a variety of Hand Painted Personalized Mugs and Wine Goblets which I am Happy to Customize with Names and Features. I will need good pictures of the people you would like Immortalized on Clay! Yes, I do Paint men and animals too! Payment for Custom Orders is due when the order is placed.
PLEASE NOTE, for Custom Orders or a Replacement Item, I need to fill my Kiln with Pottery to make the Firings Cost effective and the Glazes Cure properly, so please allow up to 5 weeks for me to make and paint enough items. These Orders are a Priority with me and depending on when my last firing was, that time frame could be shorter.
