Come meet the potters, enjoy a delicious spread of food, and find the perfect presents for housewarmings, Mom, graduations, weddings or yourself.<br /> All of the pots are meant to be used and enjoyed. They are lead-free and almost all are dishwasher, microwave and oven safe. Of course, many buyers also like to display these pieces to add decorative flair to their homes.<br /> Student Karlee Yurek, says "it is such a delight to step out of day-to-day work to craft beautiful, functional items, and then be able to share them with others."
