Dirt Kicker Pottery

Cindy Gilliland of Dirt Kicker Pottery makes pottery that can be used every day.   It is functional and in balance with the food that is served within.  She sent me a photo of her Leaf Pool Bowl, glazed with a glossy finish, it is perfect for serving her favorite salad in.

  3. One of my first and favorite Dirtkicker pieces was the pie dish. It's exciting to see it come out of the oven - not only do my pies taste good, they present BEAUTIFULLY!
