Etsy...it's a Good Thing.

I've been looking for a utensil holder and a bowl for my new kitchen for a long time. My old stuff didn't match any longer. Now that the kitchen is all done, I want to put the finishing touches in accessories in it. I couldn't find anything that "fit." I did see a few things on ebay but was outbid. I was very disciplined and set a maximum bid, and when I was outbid, "oh well". While browsing around Etsy late Monday night to see what new things Mary and Amanda had in their shops, I thought I'd see if anyone on there had any hand thrown pottery. I did a search and found something perfect, Halfele Pottery. Todd had a untensil holder and a bowl, so I ordered them immediately. Cheaper even than my max bid on the ebay stuff! They arrived on Friday. I couldn't be more pleased. I snitched the pics from his site because they look better than what my camera took. I've purchased a few things on Etsy, and like supporting people who create and sell their own wares.
