IT IS WHAT IT IS

October 8, 2008 By Deborah Leave a Comment

Ok here we are in the middle of an economic melt down, and low and behold the plaque that says IT IS WHAT IT IS has been getting so much attention that I am writing a second blog post about it. We have been selling it at retail shows and the stream of comments are usually fun and sometimes a window into a person’s life. Mostly we find people buying the saying for their bosses but increasingly it is for a family member who needs a little thoughtful sentiment.

My favorite story was a group of work friends who were shopping together. Their boss was away on vacation and they were cleaning his office for him while he was gone. They split the cost of the plaque and planned on hanging it up over his desk before he got back.

They got a lot of fun out of that $14.95 investment!

We have lots of sayings for encouragement and we are making more. Keep in touch and watch the New section!

About Deborah

I have been a potter for 35 years. I have been making the ceramic plaques with sayings on them for about 20 years. I love making the plaques because they are a doorway into people's lives and relationships. Although I loved making mugs and dishes by hand for people to use in their daily lives I find I connect with my customers a lot more intimately through the plaques.
It seems we are all trying to support each other and show our love for our family and friends in new ways all the time. I especially love using humor to help accept tricky situations.
The newer rectangle plaques are especially fun for me because they appeal to men and women. This opens up a new world of sayings.
As our lives change the sayings we want change so the possibilities are endless.
I still love to get dirty working with clay and my staff every day while I invent new words and phrases and products.
I am a pretty lucky girl!
