The clock is ticking.\u00a0 Can you hear it?\u00a0 It’s telling everybody out there that there are just five days left for you to place your custom orders for the holiday season.\u00a0 On Friday we will load up the last kiln of the year, so if you have any intentions of placing a way-cool custom order or two, you had better do it soon.\u00a0 Over the past couple of years I’ve been actively encouraging my customers to submit these orders because I know how much fun it is to give someone dear something that was specially made for them.\u00a0 And due to the “anything goes” nature of my artwork, we have gotten a lot of strange requests over the years.\u00a0 One of my all-time favorites is a mug we did for a guy who was in charge of getting all the mold out of his lab\/workplace after Hurricane Katrina:<\/p>\n

Good ideas yield good custom orders.\u00a0 Another mug that was particularly fun to do was one we did for a woman named Sharon.\u00a0 I really like the affection the friend who commissioned the mug must have for her:<\/p>\n

Do you have someone on your gift list who you would like to give something like this?\u00a0 If so, get over to the “Custom Orders” section of this website<\/a> and read through the tips on how to place an order.\u00a0 It’s really pretty simple and it can yield some great gifts if you go for it.\u00a0 Don’t forget, anything ordered by Friday, 12\/02 can be shipped out on Tuesday, 12\/06.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
