Hoekstra —
$750 Winner – 2013
Bailey is a stellar company. Each time I call I feel confident
to ask questions about improving my pottery. The equipment I ordered
works well. Recently I brought some equipment down to Jamaica to set
up a pottery studio at a Teen Challenge Center. I am confident that
the equipment will last for years. Thank you for taking care to
produce exemplary tools.

Jo Swenson — $500
Winner – 2012
I am so
thankful to win the gift of $500.00. I live in a rural area of
Montana, and have been involved with art all of my life. I
have been throwing pottery on the wheel for about 12 years (I
actually use a Bailey wheel). The name of the business is Montana
Earth and Fire. I am also an art teacher for our elementary school.
This is my 24th year of teaching. Before Christmas, about 225
students built a clay project. Man was that ever an experience! With
the prize money I plan on purchasing a Kiln setter and other
accessories. Again, Thank You! This was indeed an unbelievable
happy surprise to start off the New Year with.

Thanks for the prize! What a wonderful, helpful,
and conscientious company—and, you actually give back to your
customers too. You're the only ones I do business with. I like your

appreciate it so much.
Thanks a bunch,

A. — $250 Winner – 2012
Thank you Bailey Pottery for the $250 gift certificate! I have
three studio items I have purchased from you: a slab roller, a
potter's wheel, and a wedging table. All three are excellent
quality and a good value. Your service has always exceeded my
expectations. I appreciate ‘one stop shopping’ because
you supply so completely a potter's needs. I recommend you
highly and wish you prosperity and blessings.
Best Regards,

Aoife Pacheco — $250 Winner – 2012
I've been pottering for 25 years and when I began to build my own
studio I knew Bailey was the place to go for everything I needed.
From my clay to my kiln, I always depend on Bailey and am
never disappointed. I love driving up to the showroom to check
out their products in person. I've also had great experiences
ordering online and over the phone. I'm always impressed by how
much such a small and efficient staff accomplishes! I recently
purchased a Bailey slab roller and wheel and they are both the
absolute highest quality. I feel confident using any Bailey product
and I know that if I ever have an issue, I will be taken care of by
their friendly and competent staff. A heartfelt thank you
to everyone at Bailey for supporting potters for the past 37 years!
Plus an extra thank you for your generous gift of a $250 credit; I
can't wait to spend it!

Betty A. — $750
Winner - 2012
“I was very pleasantly surprised and delighted to have won a $750
gift certificate from Bailey's and I will put it to good use. I
discovered Bailey's when I was searching for raku glazes. I
found that they have great discounts and their prices are very
competitive. Now that I am hooked on raku, I depend on them for
my raku needs.
I have recently ordered the System 3
Clay Extruder with
Power Drive
. This will lead to a whole new creative experience... and more
supplies from Bailey's!
The website and extensive inventory
at Bailey's makes them seem like a very large company, but when you
speak with the staff you feel like a friend of the family. Thank you
so much!” |

“I’d like to thank the amazing staff
at Bailey’s for their stellar service and expertly constructed
equipment. I could not be more satisfied as a customer. Every pieces
of Bailey’s equipment is so beautifully welded/engineered that I
cannot help but to weep.
I’m a ceramist in Hawaii. I want to
make amazing ceramic works in the future, Bailey Pottery Supply’s
equipment will be with me for the journey!”
Thanks,

A — $250
Winner - 2012
Hi! I am a potter in South Carolina and I have been using
Bailey products for years. My Bailey Pro- X wheel has served my
throwing needs very well for many years and I absolutely love how
you can adjust the height. Last winter I purchased the Mini might
slab roller and I use it all the time for all of my hand-building
needs; perfect for the small studio! The selection of supplies
at Bailey is wonderful and I know they will have the glazes and
tools I need and if I have questions their customer service has
never disappointed.
Thank you!

Joyce
S. — $1000
Winner - 2011
I am a watercolorist new to pottery. Among the photos, I have
included one at my outdoor work area getting ready to try out the
new Bailey Mini Might Slab Roller. I have also included a photo of a
set of what I call my “Carp Pots” taken at a recent pottery
show. I stumbled upon Bailey Pottery when looking for supplies as a
“newbie” and have never looked back. I have had lots of
questions and the staff has been wonderful. When I add up the
personable and caring staff, the wide range of supplies and
equipment, excellent prices, and prompt delivery it seems to me I
have found a good home.
This prize means the world to me in terms of
getting set up as a new potter. I think I will indulge myself with
some of those very gorgeous glazes that I would not ordinarily be
able to buy as well as with more needed tools and equipment. I used
to say “I never win anything.” Well — not any more. Thank you
Bailey from the bottom of this novice potter’s heart!

W. — $500 Winner - 2011
I was so excited to hear I had won a raffle at Bailey Ceramics!!! So
excited... as I have been in the process of building my home studio
for about a year so I am just acquiring all the supplies. I've
purchased my Shimpo VL-Whisper Wheel, Bailey Slab Roller and newly
Bailey Quick Trim (which I'm excited to use!) as well as glazes,
tools, from Bailey. I am a bargain shopper so I looked at all
suppliers, and Bailey is the best price with quality equipment! I
feel they have the most comprehensive website available, and it is
user friendly. Their customer service is wonderful as the staff is
helpful and polite! I just can't explain how wonderful it feels
to win and now be able to add more supplies to this passion!
Thank you!!! |

O'Brien — $250
Winner - 2011
"After being 'on the road' for a few years, I've finally
landed and re-opened a studio. Bailey has been helpful in
stocking-up and getting going. If glitches happen in the process
they are the nicest people to work with!! I'm off (only slightly)
and am now running with raku and barrel firing after years of
woodburning. I'm glad Bailey is around, along with the beauty of
this world and what we can do with dirt, water and fire."

$100 Winner 2011
“I just wanted to thank Bailey ceramics for putting me in their
gift certificate drawing. I didn’t even know they had one so
it was an awesome surprise to receive $100.00 in free stuff. I
will be buying some new kiln shelves. Bailey’s high alumina
kiln shelves have been an essential part of my process. Before
I began using Bailey’s shelves in my kiln, I fought warped and
broken shelves on a weekly basis. The shelves in my kiln right
now have survived over 50 cone 11 firings with 5 hour soaks between
1900 and 2000 degrees. The crystalline glazing process is hard
on kilns and shelf’s so I try to get the most durable and reliable
I can find.”

of mediocrity in customer service, it is refreshing to deal

Winner - 2011
“When buying pottery
supplies and equipment, there is no doubt about baileys quality and
service. We use the Bailey Pro X and Pro XL wheel, Bailey DRD 30
Slab Roller, the Standard 4 and Standard 9 extruder and all of our
tools. Their fast shipping and customer service is excellent. We
have been in business for 6 years now and have relied on Bailey from
day one. Having a company like Bailey behind you makes running your
business less hectic and affordable. It's Bailey doing what they do
that allows us to do what we do and we would like to say thanks!

| “I am a hobby potter with an at
home studio, so I don’t have exposure to a teacher to help me
through some experiments that have gone wrong. (quite a few
actually ha-ha) It has been very comforting to me to know
that I can call Bailey’s for assistance on technical issues with
glazing, clay, equipment, etc.. and they have always been
courteous and patient with me. Customer service is
outstanding at the least. I have been ordering supplies
for several years and always receive them promptly and accurately.
Thank you Bailey for your support !”

“I’ve
been doing pottery for about ten years now, mostly as a hobby to
stay sane! I started out purchasing products from a variety of
companies but I kept coming back to Bailey Pottery because
they had the most variety of products, always in stock and really,
really great prices! Imagine my surprise when I found out
I was the grand prize winner of $500! It was truly Christmas in
July. Since then, I have totally stocked every little tool,
unusual glaze color and great new books because of Bailey’s
generosity. Now, I’ve started teaching handbuilding to new
students at my local studio and I always tell them that
Bailey’s is your one source for everything pottery!
