I hope you all get your fill of eggs this weekend……the shop will be open on
Sunday from 1pm – 5pm and Monday 12pm – 5pm
so if your out in the Discovery Park for a walk, or an Alice in Wonderland Experience, call in to say hello…
Happy Easter all
We have lots of great Easter Decorations in the shop right now, they make great gifts that won’t pile on the pounds….
Kids love these bunnies and they are only €2.50 each
I was told today by a customer that this is called a ’Japanese Easter Tree’ I love the idea of an Easter Tree…
How cute are these little egg warmer bunnies?
All of us at Rosemarie Durr Pottery would like to wish our customers, friends and family a Happy Easter. The shop will be closed tomorrow Easter Sunday but open Monday 1-5.
It’s a dilemma every year whether to open the shop on Easter Sunday. I know there will be lots of people around for the egg hunt, cafe and walks but it is a holiday equal to Christmas and one I want to spend at home, making a beautiful lunch, eating chocolate and going for a long walk.
Over the past few years it has become increasingly difficult as a small shop to live up to the expectations of the general public (especially as we are situated in the beautiful surroundings of the Discovery Park which only closes Christmas day) on Sundays it feels like it is expected as the norm to be open not so much for business but for entertainment….this is difficult for small business with one or two people involved, its often too quite at off peak times to employ extra staff but is disappointing for the public if they visit the Estate Yard and find some of the studios closed.
I guess it’s just one of these things we have to live with, but if you are coming to especially to visit a particular studio its always better to contact them before making a special trip. Enjoy all those eggs……..
These are the traditional Easter Eggs, not a piece of chocolate in sight. I like nothing more than set up pretty arrangements and photograph them, this post is pure self indulgence. If you have little ones and looking for some entertainment on Sunday then get the family to the egg trail in Castlecomer Discovery Park. I imagine chocolate eggs will be on the menu but there might be the odd goose egg thrown in.
