MudPuppy Mold Company - Vintage Styled Molds and Bisque

Been working on it for awhile now, but it's been slow going. We have SOOO much on our plate with StoryBook Ceramics...

So Let me now announce the official opening of MudPuppy Molds and Bisque.

MudPuppy Molds and Bisque

There.

So I'll be adding bisque just as fast as I can, and the molds side will grow enough to keep it from becoming completely stale. If I can get enough going on through the holidays, and can actually make some more masters for the molds, I'll start pushing harder this spring.

Noteworthy Mention

It's always neat to be mentioned by one of the collectors, especially when you do reproductions like we do. Traditionally, collectors hate reproductions, usually because they are sold as "vintage" to fool the unwary collector, and their quality is in the dumps.

So it's nice to see a reference to our webstore in an article that is NOT trashing repro artists such as ourselves. See the link "reproduction pottery cookie jars" for a link to us, and the context of the reference in the following article:

Collecting Cookie Jars: Searching For The Cookie Lady

I would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to Deanna Dahlsad for the mention.
