Heidi Kenney @mypapercrane.bsky.social · 20/01/2025It’s been so cold and snowy here so I’m really looking forward to Spring this year. Not only for the gardening, but getting back to searching the river banks for pottery to make more mosaic pieces like this tray. #mudlarking 0140
Heidi Kenney @mypapercrane.bsky.social · 20/01/2025Just working on mugs/shoveling snow/then back to mugs…bracing for some crazy low temps this coming week. I’ll be in the basement studio (in front of the heater) working on mugs 😬 070
