Working out of my studio in Shubenacadie, Nova Scotia, I explore ideas in clay through a wide range of objects and methods.

Honey extraction this weekend people! Besides studio work (all the holiday show making 😫), I’ll be extracting all the honey currently stored (and dripping) in these supers. While 6 are from my hives, the rest belong to a friend. My car smells of nothing but honey 🍯 🐝 #racheldecondeceramics #honeybee #honey #honeyextraction #novascotiabeekeepers #canadianbeekeepers #studiolife #countrylife
Well hey little stowaway 🐝 . With all my honey supers in the studio, I sometimes discover new studio mates. I set this hardworking gal back outside to return to the hive 🐝 ❤️🐝❤️🐝❤️🐝❤️🐝 #racheldecondeceramics #honeybee #studiomate #countrylife #studiolife #beekeeper #novascotiabeekeepers

Last day for “sale studio”- cause I always hang the signs backwards 🤨. Yesterday was amazing! So many people popping by to pick up gifts for themselves or better yet, early holiday shopping. Smart cookies 🍪 Perfect day for a country drive too. Open today 9am-1pm #racheldecondeceramics #greatgifts #holidayseasoniscoming #supportlocal #secondssale #openstudio #craftnovascotia #madeinnovascotia
That’s my sale sign tucked between fresh eggs, excavation services, top soil and water. Everything a person could need! #racheldecondeceramics #pottery #secondssale #madeinnovascotia #greatgifts #holidayseasoniscoming #supportlocal
