I don’t even like roses, but I couldn’t resist this late market $2 bunch. I shouldn’t blame the roses. Unimaginative gifting and mass market romance scream, “You so don’t know me.” Even through pursed-lipped disdain, I’m reminded how much flowers make me want to smile and how inspired I am by their vibrant display of color.

i can hear connie francis* right now…
I longed aloud today for a simple carafe. Someone heard me.
Did you read the newsletter? Did you see the announcement? Have you been to the website? What? No? Heath Ceramics has gone Uber-Weck. I think I♥Heath Ceramics, even more hardcore.
The range Heath now carries online is, umm, just stoopid. Seriously, they’ve got Weck sets. Love. Wait, did I say that again? Love. Fine. Umm, silly happy. How about that? Better?
See for yourself.
…Hold on. I just looked at the prices. Why does it feel like it’s cheaper than when I got my first taste of Weck goodness last year? It just might be. I won’t argue.

*you know, she sung “Where The Boys Are,” the theme song to the 1960 Spring Break comedy. No? I guess that’s what I get for faking sick/ditching school and watching lots of old movies on the telly.
really kinda giggly and screechy over here…

Yes, this picture sent me into a fit of giggles. It’s a good thing since I thought the earth was about to swallow me whole. I’m inhaling paint fumes from downstairs, my head is KILLING me and everyone’s music is too LOUD.
Thankfully, I got a different kind of pain relief. That’s right. The Inbox saved my life. The March Heath Ceramics newsletter linked to a sneak peek of the 2010 Spring/Summer Collection. Colors are beautiful. Loving the process. Each piece is double dipped glazed by hand. The pieces are fun, bright and cheerful.
I think I see a present to myself in the very near future. The collection will be available April 1st.
Oh, my word. I can’t wait.

Oh, no. I hear him and his drums.

i like them. i REALLY like them.
Whether you decide to use the amazing Weck jars for canning or storage, finding them seems to be a question that keeps popping up. These are the few sites and shops I’ve found, heard of or used to purchase Weck.
Weck Canning – The online home with Weck specific canning info. In the point/click/buy online shopping sphere, the process seems a little complicated, but this is where you can get it all.
Heath Ceramics – I♥Heath Ceramics, hardcore. I bought my Weck from Heath. Selection is limited, but they tend to have good shipping deals.
Lehman’s – Carries “European Glass Canning Jars” made in Germany. They aren’t called Weck on the site, but it looks like them in the product images. Has anyone gotten them from Lehman’s recently? Are they Weck? Update: Kaela confirms Weck on her recent Lehman’s order. Comment below.
terrain – As well as the individual jars, they even carry bath salts, bath teas and candles poured into Weck.
New* Canoe – The Portland, Oregon home of wonderfully curated objects carries .25L, .2L, .5L (tall) and the .75L jars individually.
Where did you buy your Weck? Is there a site or store that you go back to to covet the loveliness that is Weck? Let me know where to find more and I’ll update.

I’m building my collection slowly and didn’t realize how it was coming together until I photographed a few of the pieces a couple of weeks ago. I adore heath so.
