I've been a Monty Python fan for as long as I can remember. The Holy Grail being my favorite Python film, I was inspired to create. The Holy Hand Grenade.

Kathy and I have really been busy gearing up for the upcoming "Age of Chivalry" Renaissance Festival here in Las Vegas starting October 9-11th. Here are a couple of our items that we've made for this occasion:

We've also added these scurvy dogs to our MoNsTeR bOx collection....

Our dear friend and local fine artist, Laura Zollar, has come to play with clay with us as well.
She created an absolutely stunning re-enchanted bottle and an artistic apothecary bottle.
