Emerson Creek Pottery - Giveaway!!

This week, I'm excited to let you know about Emerson Creek Pottery!

Located in Bedford, Virginia, their pottery is formed of clay made onsite. Each piece is hand made, hand painted and fired in a gas kiln. They create servingware, teaware, pitchers, bakeware, vases, lamps, flower pots, ornaments, bathroom accessories, and many more beautiful pieces.

What amazes me is that each piece is painted without a pattern or stencil. They have true artists at work! Emerson Creek Pottery's ceramic pieces have been featured at Mt. Vernon, Monticello, and the Smithsonian Institute.

Emerson Creek Pottery is very generously offering one lucky winner an elegant Square Appetizer Plate in your choice of design! In order to enter:

I have been searching for cute AND safe baby dishes. Now I've found them thanks to you. I LOVE the goldfish baby dishes and will be purchasing them for my daughter, Amelie. THANK YOU!

A well-designed, hand-crafted sturdy shortbread pan, from clay? Made in the states?? How cool is that?!

I love the Iris African Violet pot! My mom grew African Violets on our windowsill when I was a girl (seemingly without effort) and this reminds me of her. I love the fact that the pot has inner and outer pieces for beauty and functionality!
And I love, love, love the handpainted irises--they are lovely!
Thank you for another place to get fabulous, American made products!

"Going Green" base color is my favorite style of pottery. Put a dragonfly on it and it would be perfect...would that mean it's not green anymore? :) - although now I have to go back and see the african violet pot someone mentioned! The Iris designs were next favorite I think...

The Pinecone Dinnerware Set immediately caught my eye! The attention to detail is awesome! They look like real pinecones!! You can see each 'petal' of the pine cone outlined. It's as if you can reach out and touch the pine cones!! Thank you for the contest!
