The original Spooner Creek designs by Michael McCone handcrafted in Wisconsin, USA 373 Stand not included May there always be work for your hands to do. May your purse always hold a coin or two. May the sun always shine on your window pane. May a rainbow be certain to follow every rain. May the hand of a friend always be near to you. May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you. Wisconsin artist Michael Macone was planning to be a painter until his high school pottery instructor exposed him to all the wonders of clay. He enrolled in Layton School of Art in Milwaukee, but couldn't shake his ceramic experiences, so he decided to revisit pottery. He created one of a kind clay art and exhibited throughout the country dragging his young family with him, winning many awards along the way. He and his wife now have a gallery/cafe in Shell Lake, Wisconsin, where patrons can try their own hand at pottery and other creative endeavors. He also produces a collection of handmade decorative tiles and home decor called "Spooner Creek".
