Alex Simon from Make Good Choices joins us this week from her magical studio in Portland, Oregon. Alex is a sparkle queen who blesses us all with her dream pots, and her dreams include everything from pickles to unicorns to denim! She tells us about her edu'clay'tion and how summer camp continues to inspire her extraordinary studio music videos. Alex also talks about her slip casting process- including assembling both found objects and vintage molds, working backwards from your final idea for a piece, and moving through the production process in stages. We also learn about investing in your business, gold decal methods and Alex's wonderfully complex relationships with various glues as she continues to bedazzle the world.
This episode contains dramatic behind the scenes story telling, heart bursting encouragement, consistent uplifting of community over competition and finding joy in your own brand of magic. Not to be missed!
Spread the sparkle,
Aimee & Clare
