This was the quickest, easiest, coolest project. And free!

A potholder I made for my sister Angie for Valentine's Day.

These 1970s cast iron trivets were my mother-in-law's. Made in Taiwan. So cute and kitschy!

Close up showing the 16 MHz 68020, with its 68881 math co-processor. A classic combination! It also reminds me a bit of this combination found in a dining table that we made a few years ago.

Trivet again, ceramic tile on wooden base.

This a new free pattern and instructional video that we've put up on our website. It's easy to make and it will protect your tabletop if you are serving hot dishes.

This is a “Tumbling Block” quilt pattern trivet. It is made using diamonds and triangles from different kinds of wood, all in their natural colors. There are 30 pieces on this block, 24 diamonds and 6 triangles, all full size. There are as many stars as blocks. At the side of each diamond is the middle of a block. At the point of each diamond is the middle of a star with 6 points. It measures 4 ½” across. To finish them, I use 5 or 6 coats of a clear wiping varnish, rubbed in by hand.

 

The type of wood is listed on the bottom from the center out. On this quilt block the wood is “Hackberry”, “Oak”, and “Walnut” from Missouri.

 

On the bottom I signed it, listed the wood, and dated it. After the date, the words “Foot Cut” let you know I made it on a foot powered table saw.

 

The five pictures show the different look the one trivet can have as you lay it down different ways.

 

A very simple trivet...

Vitreous glass on wood from March, 2006.

I found out contemporary mosaics on the net that time and I had to try making a piece immediately...

Brian Aikin’s trivet re: Faith, Hope and Charity.

The pentigram star under the Masonic Square and Compasses is likely a reference to the star used in the Order of the Eastern Star. Note the arch and lopsided keystone.

 

The blazing star pattern used, is usually that of the

"pentalpha", or five pointed star with intermediate flames. This

star is primarily the symbol of divine providence and can be found

in our mosaic pavement. The five points should remind us also of

other masonic "fives". The five orders of arch itecture, the five

points of fellowship, the five senses and the five who must be

present in order for a Lodge to be held. The star is also said to

represent the Morning Star which is yet another symbol of rebirth

which is so significant to each of us.

I should point out that there is a six pointed star or hexalpha

which is also known as the "Glory". This six pointed star is the

Seal of Solomon and also the Star of David. This star is also

represented on the carpet at times and there is distinct confusion

in the texts over which star is THE star to use. The primary

symbolic meaning of the six pointed star is the universe as an

entity.

This was an attempt to make each piece fit tightly together. It was maddening. The center is a dinner plate cut out with my ring saw, very hard on the blade. A good learning experience.

Sold - Thanks Ronda

This is a unique, one-of-a-kind, handmade trivet that is so diverse, no exact set will be found any other home. This hand formed ceramic trivet is a beautiful enhancement to any kitchen decor, and is hand painted with a cork backing to help prevent scratching on surfaces and movement of the plate.

 

*Plate to be wiped down with a damp towel.

*Not dishwasher safe

 

As with all my creations, these are handmade, signed, one-of-a-kind plate that can be copied, but not duplicated. Each piece is meticulously hand formed, as well as hand glazed with three to six coats to achieve the best color enhancement.

 

Have a different design in mind? Email me with a picture and I can make a custom piece with 50% down.

with trivet and watering can pull, a tea tag with a bluebird that says Tea of Happiness

and a poem/quote on the reverse by Vita-Sackville West.

Quickie project with vitreous tile, metallic tile, minis, marble, beads, Magnesite ovals, glitter mini tiles, iridescent tiles, ceramic triangle beads and ball chain around an agate slice.

Each trivet uses up to a yard of fabric. I then crochet them into these super sturdy trivets- perfect for protecting surfaces from hot dishes, pots and pans; great for your next indoor/outdoor picnic, potluck or tea party, even as part of a centerpiece or to hold planters.

 

This one features pretty chocolate & berry colors, with tiny streaks of almond, raspberry, and blueberry in 100% cotton. Made with a loop, so it's perfect for hanging and easily grabbing when you need it.

 

1964 New York World's Fair trivet - gift to my Nebraska grandmother.

Scene: A couple of years ago - our home on a "boring" day.

Cast: Me, Ali and Mandi (daughters)

Daughter 1: "Mom, we're bored, let's go paint pottery at that cool place downtown."

Daughter 2: "Yeah, Mom - Yeah!"

Me: "But I've got so much to do and I really don't want an elephant or dragon figurine right now"

Daughter: "I'm sure they have something really lame there for Mom's to paint!"

Me: "OK! If you put it that way!"

[drive to cool pottery place downtown}

Pottery guru: "Hey lady - whadaya wanna paint?"

Me [looking frantically, scouring shelves....then sees something....feel juices of creativity flow freely] "I see it!" [choir of angels sing in background] "I'll paint a trivet to match the armless chair in our family room!" [applause from everyone in the cool pottery place ensues]

Daughter 1: "Whatever, Mom - I'm gonna paint a dragon."

Daughter 2: "Cool, Mom - I'm gonna paint a Winnie the pooh or something equally cute."

Me: "That's lovely girls, because we really need a dragon and cutesy character figurine at home! I never have enough things to dust!"

[Scene closes with a big hug while the pottery guru smiles, nods and gets our painting spots ready]
