BIRDIE AND FOULER VISIT THE STATUE OF LIBERTY "STAYCATIONS"  are being encouraged across the country this year.  Birdie and Fouler, always the patriotic ones,  decided to visit the Statue of Liberty.  No,  not the one in New York City......the one right here at Follette Pottery.  She is an "exact" replica constructed by our own Laura Follette Bourgeois (with just the tiniest bit of help from her father,  Kent) many years ago when the Follette's hosted a huge Fourth of July party each year. We at Follette's wish you all a happy 4th and hope your "stacation"  includes your favorite pottery, Follette's. of course.

SOMETHING'S FISHY IN FLAMBEAUX Kent loves to fish.  He also likes to make pottery.  The newest pot in our  line is, what else, a fish bowl.  This 12" wide  beauty is fired in rich flambeaux colors.  It is stunning.  They are available in the shop right now at only $60.  The really good news is that there are other designs coming soon.  Stay tuned.

CENLA TRAVEL GROUP HEADS NORTH Nancy Richards with Cenla Travel out of Alexandria, Louisiana and about 50 other members made a trip to Follette Pottery on June 23, 2009. The group had a great time touring the facilities and looking around the gift shop. They also really enjoyed feeding the fish in the pond behind the gift shop.  If you have a group you would like to bring out to the pottery, please contact Libby Follette at libby@follettepottery.com or call 318-513-9121 to discuss your visit.

HENRIETTA GLASS IS HERE! We have a rule at Follette's about who we add to our store.  The work, of course, has to be interesting but the rule we really stand by is this--the artist has to love what they are doing.  Attitude is everything.  We found the epitomy of our rule with Jill Henrietta Davis,  also known as Henrietta Glass.   She loves what she does and it shows.  Her wine stoppers are flying off the shelf.   We also have her ring holders and aromatherapy reed diffusers.  Each  of her products come in a cute little box with a colorful info card for the perfect gift.  They are fun, colorful and reasonably priced at only $20 each.

FREE GIFT FROM PANDORA   PANDORA Jewelry is always so generous with their gifts.  The entire month of July PANDORA is offering a fine leather carrying case designed for Pandora jewelry (but will hold other items as well). It is absolutely FREE with a PANDORA purchase of $100.  We just received many, many Murano glass beads, so that would be a great place to start to add a little color for the summer.

Kami Chauncy hangs out with us in Pea Ridge In early June we had a special visitor.  Kami, for whom our Kami cup is named, and her family spent time with us touring the pottery, visiting the gift shop and she and her sister enjoyed the pond and feeding the fish.  She is pictured decorating her very own Kami cup.  Below is the recipe Kami's mom sent us after their first visit when Kent was so impressed with Kami and her fighting spirit.  He decided to make a special cup in her honor and her mothers recipe comes with each cup.  It really is the "worlds most dangerous chocolate cake" because you can make it less than 5 minutes.  Coffee breaks will never be the same.  Enjoy!! Recipe of the Month Kami Cake 1 Follette Kami Mug 4 Tbsp. Self Rising Flour 4 Tbsp. Sugar 2 Tbsp. Baking Cocoa 1 Egg 3 Tbsp. Milk 3 Tbsp. Oil 3 Tbsp.

PEACH FESTIVAL LIVES ON IN PEA RIDGE The Peach Festival was a real success.  Ricky Skaggs has packed up and gone home, the banners are down, and Beta Sigma Phi has put away their peach ice cream scoops for another year.  But..........all is not over.  Peaches are still plentiful.  So is peach pottery at Follette's.  Libby really got busy this year.  You know how good that peach cobbler is.  Well, it just gets better when it's baked in Follette peach pottery.  If you would like a copy of our peachy recipes, just email us at libby@follettepottery.com with a physical address and we will get  it on it's way.  If you want us to send you some pottery, we can surely do that, too.
