That sounds like our Pearl! Love your work.
Wonderful to see more exposure for Pearl's work. Her pottery is lovely and she is a great part of our BBEST team.
Great feature on Pearl. I love her work and great words of wisdom.
Pearl is a delightful addition to the boomers. She is always positive and giving and she has a fabulous, natural sense of humor. She always brightens my day. I love love love her work. My BBEST mug is oneof my favorite things. It's a pleasure to know her and I am so happy she is in my life. Thank you for featuring her this week. ox lady joon :)
Pearl, this sounds just like you! And what a wonderful thing, to be who you are through and through, so that I would recognize you anywhere! :) LOVE your work, and LOVE BOTH of my wonderful Fehustoneware Mugs!!!
Pearl is one of my favorite people on etsy . She is honest and her work is wonderful. Her honesty
shows in her work. It is clean and classic and
beautiful.
Pearl, what a lovely interview - your work is awesome and I've enjoyed getting to know you and the rest of the Boomers. You are truly an asset to this group.
Pearl exuberance for her work shines through in this interview. She is a spontaneous and loving person who also happens to be highly creative. I have my own little Pearl collection scattered throughout the house...a vase here, a utensil holder there, a cookie jar, a bowl...I'm sure I'll be adding to the collection!
I love that Pearl is a no-schedule girl, getting up in the middle of the night to throw a pot!
Hurray for Pearl!! Not only is she talented, but she's willing to share her knowledge. Keep up the good work, Pearl!!
Loved reading and getting to know Pearl even better! She is a wonderfully talented person and such a kind and thoughtful member of the BBEST TEAM! I feel very honoured to call her a friend.
What wonderful pottery! Pearl must be very special, judging from the comments of people who know her. I'm pleased to make her acquaintance!
