I’m often asked “what’s the most popular piece in the studio: Piggy banks? Candle holders? A particular type of mug? Well, believe it or not, it’s none of those. The most popular piece painted at ARTrageous is: The Traditional Spoon Rest. It’s an absolute fan favorite, and we have a hard time keeping them in stock! These artful utensil guardians delight us daily – awash in festive colors and seasonal designs. We love them all.

But it gets me thinking: In a world where traditional is good … is UN-traditional better?

So today, I am laying down a challenge. Let’s imagine a world full of zany, funky, and UN-traditional spoon rests. Ones shaped like penguins, and pigs, and sugar skulls, and more. You can do it, you know. With a little out-of-the-box thinking, you can turn ANY pottery piece into your stovetop hero. And you’ll smile just a little, every time you use it. Because you’ll know. You’ve been a part of the Spoon Rest Revolution! Woo-hoo!!!
