The boys and I made ceramic leaf plates and platters which look lovely year-round, and not just for the fall. Our decorating style tends to be light and airy and has nature’s colors, so we know first hand that these plates really complement a natural, rustic, or woodsy home. And they are just funky enough that they will do well in pretty much any other more “fun” decor too!
The above is a piece that Tadpole #1 made last year. This year, we made a red-bud leaf plate, a sycamore leaf plate, hickory 3-leaf platter, and a poke leaf plate. We glazed them today so they won’t be ready for another week, but I’ll post photos as soon as they’re ready.

This looks beautiful – very rustic and appealing.

Oh my goodness! I was going to ask if you did leaves!! Not only do I have a thing for ceramics, I also have a thing for leaves and green. I’d love some leaf sized ceramic leaves to hang on a wall. How cool would that be?!
Maybe I should take up ceramics…as if I need ANOTHER hobby ;0)
