A couple of years ago , I started a little blog with a BIG heart called Mud Colony .
I was participating in another community blog called My Creative Space, which is where the idea occurred to me .
'Creatives' & 'Crafters' added the link to their blog to showcase what they had been making that week in their studio .
I decided there was a need for a CERAMICS blog in a similar vein , and MC was born !!
That very first post there were three of us , and now two years on there are 60 potters on the list with approximately 10-18 adding weekly .
So a few months ago I made the difficult decision to not continue with the blog in 2014 , as moderating was taking up lots of studio time - also the link tool needed to be manually added every week(which was making me INSANE!).
I believe that when the subscription to the LINKY tool runs out that the individual linkups on the PAGE will not work BUT go to THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THIS PAGE and the BLOGROLL will still take you
to the latest post by individual artists ! (phew!)
THANK you to all the participants ,and regular MC followers !!
Especially for all the ridonkulously kind comments this week - totally over the top , but heartfelt and much appreciated !!!
I have made some life long friends , and look forward to staying connected through our individual blogging !!
Any inquiries regarding contacting members may be emailed to me HERE
My studio is open this weekend so Id best SCOOT !!
Happy Christmas and big hugs to my Mud Colony buddies !!
Here's looking at YOU xx
Cheers
Adriana
And HUGE THANKS to you, Adriana, for bringing a new community into my life!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry that I missed the last post Adriana! I've been pretty negligent this last while, though in that time, I still enjoyed reading what others have written and of course I've loved following you and all your inspiring photos! Mud Colony will surely be missed. It's been wonderful getting to know the members and you and I feel like I've made lifelong friendships because of your blog.
ReplyDeleteLike others who have gushed about you, I can't thank you enough for your commitment to the blog and your facebook posts, photos....even writing this, I am amazed at how you managed it all, on top of pot production AND family! Congrats to you for such a successful venture. Pre-Christmas is crazy for me right now but I'm looking forward to sharing all things clay with everyone on the FB page in the New Year!
Endless hugs to you for all your hard work!
Thank you for all your hard work with the Mud Colony blog and now the Facebook page. I'm glad we all met and will still be visiting each other.
ReplyDeleteI got a new friend out of the deal, all good! Adriana for president!
