Key West Trays
“When everything seems to be in disarray, it is a sign that something small and wonderful is trying to be born, and it needs us to be distracted so that it has room to grow” — paraphrase of a Buddhist wisdom saying.
In times like these, creativity may bloom and allow unlikely combinations to develop into something wonderful. Such is the case with our new Key West trays. During our COVID-19 shutdown, Mark had some extra time to explore creative pursuits. He also had some extra bottles of underglaze that needed to be used to free up shelf space. Click link below for the complete article


ALSO ENCORE from a few weeks ago
Giving back to the community
Because the current need is great, Mark and Sarah of Shade Ceramics and Shutter Photography pledge to give 20% of our sales revenue from now until the end of June to charitable organizations that provide food and shelter assistance, like SOS Foundation of Key West and Sister Season. If you would prefer that the donation associated with your purchase go to a different charity, just let us know your choice. 
Even in the midst of the current situation, there are many occasions where you may be looking for that perfect gift. We have lots of products like dinnerware, serving pieces, and wall art that make great gifts for recent graduates, fathers, and newlyweds. Why not give a gift that gives back to the community! OF
