Further to the popularity of the ceramic houses I made last year, I am excited to share some new ones with you – Fresh from the kiln! I have had ‘house stuff’ on the brain for the last few months since buying our first house. When I unloaded the kiln last week I realised just […]
I would like to say a huge thank you to every single customer who has bought from me this year. Whether you have purchased my work via my website, at a craft fair, or come to collect, every single one of you count and make a difference. I also cannot thank my family and friends […]
With Christmas only FOUR weeks away and the very chilly weather in the air, it’s almost that time when Christmas songs will be played while I wrap gifts and munch on homemade mince pies. Have you started your shopping yet? My last order date for receiving parcels in time for Christmas is Thursday 19th December. […]
It seems like forever since I last fired the kiln so it was exciting to open it up last week to reveal lots of new goodies. I’m gutted to say that this beautiful oil burner below has a slight hair-line crack along the neck of the body. It’s too pretty to throw away and can still be […]
Following on from my previous post about uses for ceramic bowls and dishes, here is the next post in the sequence, showing examples of how and where my ceramic vessels, vases and pots can be used. It’s nice to have fresh flowers in the house, but when you don’t have any, how about displaying dried […]
I thought it would be good to put together a list of all the things that go into making my work, which could help people to understand what’s involved in the handmade process. This won’t just apply for all handmade ceramic items, but also every other craft that is made for the purpose of selling […]

What a year 2012 was! It was for sure a year to remember. I’m thrilled with what I have achieved and would like to thank everyone who has supported Charlotte Hupfield Ceramics – from those who placed an order to those who simply ‘like’ my Facebook Page… it all counts! Thank you 🙂 2012 started […]
It was an exciting day opening the kiln last week, I couldn’t wait to see how my new glazes had turned out. As well as some new coloured glazes I also now have a new transparent top coat glaze which gives a lovely shiny look and feel. I like playing around with contrasting surfaces – […]
Have you seen the new framed ceramic art pieces on my website? If you are a ‘liker’ of my Facebook page you may have noticed these new pieces being introduced yesterday. I love making these, it’s fun laying out the ceramic bits and bobs deciding where to position them. This one below is my favourite […]
All we seem to be getting weather-wise lately is rain, rain and more rain. But at least the garden will be kept happy. I’ve left it a little late this year but I can’t wait to start tending to my flower pots and plants. Brand NEW to my website this week ~ a Garden Section where […]
