Mid Mod Bird House and Handmade Pottery.

A recent trip to my picker friend Darren's home revealed his new talent: creating modern pottery.  Apparently in his "spare time" he'd taken up spinning a pottery wheel.  Really?  And I thought I crammed a lot into 24 hours.

Turns out he's quite good at it.  So good I recommended he open an Etsy shop and he did: Mock Pottery.

Take a look at some of his beautiful modern creations:  


AP-influenced stacked cone planters. 

I just call this "Fingers".
Amazing. I want this! 

Minimalist bird house.  
This is mine, hanging on my front porch.  Lucky birds!



Mini AP style double cone vases.  Fabulous! 

A collection of his personal pieces.  

I love a simple pedestal vase.  And how beautiful is the candle holder?  
See them lit up in his shop
