Fiiirst of all, I’d like to say happy 25th birthday to my friend, Steph. If you have a chance, head over to her blog and leave her some love. Or hit her up on twitter.

I’ve been up since 4:30 and I’ve got a few things I still need to do in preparation for Market Day.

There’s also a [...]
Here’s what I came up with last week during my last-minute-pull-stuff-together-for-Market-Day freakout:
birdies and coffee on corningware (see, I need new designs!) I have 6 of these. exciting.
musical flowers pink plate
musical flowers yellow plate
teatime with gram turquoise mug — “one lump or two?”

I just had a post about how I started crafting on ceramics. WELL… I made the mistake of going to an antique store to see about getting some cheap dishes to revamp and I discovered… FIESTAWARE!

Hi there. I'm Calee. Not Caylee. Also known as chimes or the chimes. I'm 27, a designer, a runner, a self-proclaimed fitness queen, a craftster, a foodie, a music snob — some might call me a hipster. Here's the unabridged version.
