fun at the Mall!

We set up shop in The Glynn Place Mall this past weekend for a Memorial Day Celebration!  We only had our best employees with us... and the cheapest really....she'll work for cookies. :)
 Kids enjoyed Sand Art and Canvas Painting...
We even stamped some hands and feet for some Fathers Day Gifts...but the best part?  Well, there were two.  We supported fellow local businesses and neighbors because when our local Mall is successful, we all are.  AND I got to teach my daughter why we celebrate Memorial Day and what her Daddy, Pop, Pappy and Great Grandpa did to serve their country...pretty cool.

love my job

Mothers Day is coming.  The studio has been busy. :)

Lots of gifts for Mom.  Lots of Dads not knowing quite what to do and us getting to help...

One particular platter just went out today.  This Dad really wanted a good gift.  But the kids were sick.  No problem.  I taught him how to get the footprints at home.  After chatting I discovered that Mom loves the beach and flip flops...perfect.  He got the footprints (I offered him a job...) and I finished the platter in a beachy "flip flop fun with mom" kind of way.

I texted him a picture today because I knew he would be anxious to see.  This is the response I got:
"That is so awesome!  I just got goosebumps.  (She) is going to cry her eyes out.  In a good way.  Y'all are amazing."

best. job. ever.

Happy Hands

We need your help! We have been working on a new concept for a few months now and we need your opinion...color me happy is getting ready to launch an exciting party option for our studio.

It will be called Happy Hand Parties...this is how it will work. We are currently creating 10 brand new hand print and foot print designs for our kick off...You provide the print, we finish the piece for you. Gifts are easy peasy! PLUS we will come to you! PLUS you get the chance to earn FREE pottery for hosting your own Happy Hands Party!

OK, this is where we need your opinion...Please leave a comment below (or email us at info@colormehappypottery.com) and let us know which options sounds most appealing to you:

  • A: I'm so excited about Happy Hands Parties! I would be interested in hosting an event IN MY HOME and earning FREE pottery while having fun with my friends & family!

  • B: Happy Hands sounds great to me and I would be interested in hosting a party at color me happy (no house cleaning).

  • C: A hand print party sounds great but with all those kids, I would be MORE interested in hosting a party if y'all had a private party room.

  • D: This all sounds great...I'm not really into the hosting thing but I would love to come to an event and party down and get cool pottery hand print art!

  • E: Happy Hand Parties sounds great for others but it just doesn't interest me right now.
Everyone who shares their thoughts will be entered into a drawing to win a FREE custom-painted dinner plate with your kids' handprints or footprints!

Thanks friends!! We'll let you know whats happening soon with Happy Hands!
