✨ We’re on tour… The Michiana Spring Clay Tour! ✨

This Saturday (Memorial Day weekend) will mark the second annual Michiana Spring Clay Tour. This one-day event will showcase many ceramic artists across Northern Indiana, and this is your chance to meet your local studio potters and see where they make their magic! ✨

This year NWI is represented through the Northern Indiana Clay Alliance (NICA) with 3 studios having their doors open! 💃✨ We hope to work with NICA in continuing to grow this number, and support studio potters here in the 219! This year you can visit Jim and Linda Winegar in LaPorte , Anthony Majewski in Chesterton , and lastly, Eric and I will be here at Beale Pottery in Westville. Beyond our area, there are many beautiful studios and talented potters to the East of us in Elkhart County that will have their doors open as well. ❤️✨

You can see a full roster, and get an interactive map on the website. Head over to www.MichianaSpringClayTour.com for more information, and plan out your Saturday - you’ll be so glad you did! ❤️✨

Eric and I plan to have light refreshments, and have the raku kiln fired up most of the day. If you’ve been curious about our studio - stop on by to say hello! 👋

Doors open at 10AM through 4PM.

*With graduations and Father’s Day just around the corner, this is a great opportunity to find unique handcrafted gifts while supporting local artists.

We hope to see you there!

✨💕🌸 Mother’s Day! 🌸💕✨ We will be open all weekend! Here’s what you should know:

1. Potted planters in a variety of colors will be a special sale price of $50 on Saturday and Sunday. Could there be a more perfect gift for mom? 🌸🤌✨

2. Mother Nature watered our plants last night, and strategically placed us at the end of the rainbow - who are we to argue with the laws of nature? 🤷‍♀️🌈 ✨

3. We have some really beautiful flowers right now! Here are some flats of geraniums - reds, pink burst, orange… so good. 🌸🤌✨

4. Our retail display inside the studio is fully stocked, and ready to shop! This gorgeous planter though... 🫠❤️ 🪴 ✨

5. Begonias. I am partial to the peachy yellows, and those of the scarlet varieties… 💃✨

6. A few strawberry items in the shop! I adore this oil cruet. Super soft satin finish with a touch of pink, and a little peek of crystals at the bottom edge. Total perfection. 🍓 🤌✨

7. Who is obsessed with coneflowers? I love the obscure - these are a double scoop strawberry. 👀 I also brought back the Vintage Lime, and have a few others. 🌸✨

8. The lupine is starting to show color here in the Dunes. When it reaches peek, it feels like magic to walk the trails in certain places. We brought back a whole slew of lupine mugs just for the moms this year. 🪻✨

9. Perennial Lavender in stock - 2 varieties in gallon size, and some in pints. It smells soooo good. 😊

10. More crystals! These vases are the same glaze. One went in an acid bath, and into the reduction. That process turned the copper pink! It’s wildly beautiful. 😍

11. Tickseed! I still have some left and these babes are thriving! 🌼

12. Butterfly lovers - we have planters and mugs! 🦋

13. Hanging baskets! 10% off all hanging baskets with any pottery purchase. Come get em! 🤌💕

14. Our Mother’s Day Ceramic Flower Workshop is THIS Saturday with sessions in the morning and evening. We’re almost full, but there is still some availability. Head to the website to get signed up. 💕

✨💕🌸 Ope! 🌸💕✨ I forgot to mention that we are INDEED having an online stock drop for Mother’s Day. This week brought some unanticipated happenings (the wind took our flower tent! 👀), but we are recovered. 🙌

Eric and I pulled some special stock for those of you that are not local. I have started taking pictures, and writing the newsletter, and will have it ready soonish - watch those inboxes for your code! 💕

The Mother’s Day Stock Drop will happen on Sunday - Mother’s Day, at 7pm CST. Set yourself a little reminder, and we’ll see you then! ✨💕✨

Our collaborative pieces for the Mother’s Day sale turned out absolutely gorgeous. ❤️ 🫠 They are so pretty and shiny and crystallized… the peek of my drawings underneath that glaze is on point. 👌 🤩 These will be available along with beautiful collections of pottery from not only ourselves, but all of the studio potters that are members here - THIS Saturday + Sunday for the Mom’s Day Shop + Hop! 💃✨
I will post a link to the event in our stories - if you’re local, don’t miss it!

We will also host an online stock drop on Monday evening at 7pm. I will be sending out a newsletter Friday morning with information on upcoming events, and an early access code exclusively for subscribers. Make sure you’re on that list. ❤️

Our spring flower delivery arrived yesterday. We will have everything set up on display during the event this weekend. We’re keeping them warm and hydrated until then… We have lots more perennials this year, natives, and plenty of annual hanging baskets and flats. It’s almost Mother’s Day, and mom’s LOVE flowers. We’ve got what you need! 💕✨

🎄Stop by and shop the studio! 🎄✨ We have just finished stocking the shelves for the last time before the holiday, and our doors are open for shopping. Come scoop up a sweet gift for that special someone… even if that someone is you - treat yoself! ❤️✨ Our studio is located at 1038 N 550 E in Westville, IN. We’re centrally located between Valpo, LaPorte, Chesterton, Michigan City. You can find us here today through the 23rd from 10am - 7pm. 🎄❤️

I’ve been a little quiet about our ornaments this year, but they deserve spotlight time! I have created two styles - first up is a sweet little humming bird hand painted with 22k gold details. Watching humming birds in the summertime with my grandmother from her kitchen window is such a fond memory for me, and I’ve really enjoyed making these sweet pieces. I love the way the gold shines with the lights on the tree. ✨ I also painted some little floral guitars to celebrate our love of good music. Music is such a big part of the vibe around here, and it just made sense. Each of these pieces are signed “Beale the Love” on the back side. 🎶 ❤️✨

We have plenty of Eric’s beautiful crystalline work stocked on the shelves, along with a handful of my hand painted work. Little plates, luminaries, pie dishes, mugs, candles, tumblers… ✨

I am also working on getting some of these items listed online - it’s been a really busy season! 😅 I hope to have remaining stock available on the site by Saturday afternoon. ❤️

See you soon! ❤️✨
