My first pottery sale took place over two days that were shockingly warm in January.
I need to work on staging. I have this tiny rolling table and way too much pottery on it and you can hardly see what's there, and certainly I made zero effort to put props like little flowers, etc., into the vases. It was more, "get something out there even if it's not perfect."
I made $50 from the pottery sale, and I matched it with my own money. The GoFundMe spreadsheet is at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10gvOxituYvxxknoY9IQa-YEqfK8WvCjcLBcg4hsmME4/edit and I just looked at the list and picked some that I thought could really use the money. I also picked a couple from the Displaced Black families list, linked from the above spreadsheet.
Here is who I gave the donations to:
| Amount | Recipient | Gofundme |

| $20 | Hendrena & LaShondra’s Family Recovery after LA Fire | https://gofund.me/c423ad24 |
