Playing around with a Webpage

So I have been trying to get an online portfolio of sorts together but was hoping that it could be an easy process. I didn't want to build a web page that sucks up a lot of time that I could be spending in the studio. Instead, I decided to use Weebly to host it. It was fast and easy to create but the drag and drop layout is lacking a little personality. I'll play around with it a little bit to see if I like it. Let me know what you think or if you have any suggestions. Cheers!

Stoneware Stamps

Can you imagine my face as I peeked in at these beauties at the Mexico City Museum of Anthropology? Everyone else is looking at the amazing pyramids and detailed carvings but you can find me drooling over....stamps. I think that only a potter could stand in awe at the precision and detail in these ancient stoneware stamps (I know my hubby was only slightly impressed). And, what better way to get inspired for the EtsyMudTeam's stamp swap. I'm heading to the studio to see what kind of stamps I can make. I hope they are even close to what those ancient cultures have created!
