BATAVIA BOO BOO DAYS IS BACK this weekend July 7th-9th! Boo Boo Days is an annual city wide discount and sidewalk sale! Traditionally, this is the opportunity for stores to sell their products with damaged packaging, off season items, and one-off products that no longer fit the displays. We LOVE Boo Boo Days here at Dirty Clay Co. because there are a lot of opportunities for things to go wrong in the pottery production process. We have a plethora of great items that just barely passed the QC test. Some examples include $4 teaspoon rests with off season graphics (lots of nautical themes), $1-2 magnets with last years patterns, $10-40 mugs, vases, and more with varying glaze defects, and a few one off ash trays etc. that are perfectly fine but we decided not to sell in the shop. We hope you can make it out!
