Arno Coenen🌟 **Exciting Updates from Xingge Porcelain District in Taipei!** 🌟 <br> <br> It’s truly inspiring to see the progress on this project, especially in such a historic and culturally rich area. Xingge Porcelain District is renowned for its centuries-old tradition of exquisite porcelain craftsmanship, blending artistry 🎨 and innovation 💡 to create timeless pieces. It’s a true honor to collaborate on a project rooted in such a unique and storied industry. <br> <br> While the challenges of distance 🌍 and time zones ⏰ can be a bit frustrating (I’d love to walk through the district more often!), I’m incredibly grateful for the seamless collaboration with my talented producer, Bluedragonart 🐉. Their professionalism and dedication make everything possible, and I’m thrilled to be part of this journey. <br> <br> Here’s to creating something beautiful, no matter the miles in between! 💪✨ <br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Collaboration?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Collaboration</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/PorcelainArt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PorcelainArt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Taipei?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Taipei</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/GlobalTeamwork?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GlobalTeamwork</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Bluedragonart?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Bluedragonart</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/CreativeProcess?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CreativeProcess</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/CulturalHeritage?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CulturalHeritage</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Artisans?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Artisans</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Craftsmanship?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Craftsmanship</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Innovation?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Innovation</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/MadeInTaiwan?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MadeInTaiwan</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Ceramics?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ceramics</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ArtAndCulture?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ArtAndCulture</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Handmade?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Handmade</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/DesignInspiration?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DesignInspiration</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/GlobalConnections?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GlobalConnections</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork</a>

Author Sharon E. Cathcart ✅<p>Do what you can to support small businesses, particularly <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/artisans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>artisans</span></a>. I'm an <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>author</span></a>, so I count myself in the latter group. Those tariffs are going to make all of our costs go up; my books are printed abroad, which means my cost per unit will go up. In order to keep my costs reasonable for readers, my profit will go down. Essential oils are compounded abroad, glass beads are made abroad ... you get the idea.</p><p>In many ways, I'm fortunate that I'm an artist who still has a day job; I won't go hungry or lose my livelihood entirely. But others might. Let's do what we can to hold them up as well.</p><p><a href="https://sfba.social/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>politics</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/notmypresident" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>notmypresident</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/shopsmall" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>shopsmall</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/shoplocal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>shoplocal</span></a></p>
MissConstrue<p>Hey y'all, in a break from the doom and gloom that is this freaking timeline, as lots of folks are cancelling <a href="https://mefi.social/tags/prime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>prime</span></a> and looking for gifts for holiday season, may I direct you towards the Artisans Cooperative?
