the weekend of the duck





(duck pitcher and what it was made from, ducky bank and what it was made from by Gary Rith)
So, I spent the weekend entertaining dozens of visitors and making ducky mugs for Cheri and Laura. That got me thinking duck thoughts, so I was THINKING and thought I would try to make a little ducky pitcher and bank...........

Gary, Your duck pitcher is SO COOL! I need one of those for the shop! I am glad you had a good Sunday with lots of traffic!
See you this week sometime?

I love the duck pitcher! Great idea. Oh the possibilities of open-mouth animals. Although, depending on what you're pouring, that could look kind of gross. Lol.

Seriously fantastic!!!

The weekend was brilliant for you, eh? Perfect weather and everything. I so wish I could have made it your way. :-(

Oh - and I'll help you with the code today ASAP. The kids are home, I'm hosting a play date, AND I'm trying to write and edit. EEKS!

Duck pitcher is another collectors' item! Really cute!... Hope your open studio weekend went well! We're now in North Carolina and I'm trying to stay on top of the blog reading, but I can see I missed some great stuff on your blog!

The ducks are no more than I'd have expected from you, Gary -- FANTASTICALLY charming, appealing, eye-catching, gotta have one-a those, too-ng.
