Patti Mohrenweiser Pottery
Brighton, MI Booth 95
With over 30 years of experience, PATTI MOHRENWEISER and her husband, Mark return to the Saline Craft Show in Booth 95 with their pottery. Mark and Patti love the process of “creating something from nothing.” According to Patti “what makes it even more enjoyable is when a particular piece resonates with a customer.” One of their most popular items is their pottery trees which are hand-built with embossed designs unique to each tree that balances on a handmade stand. Even though designs are not necessarily holiday-oriented, customers report that they leave their trees up year-round and add to their collection every year. New in 2024 are creating colorful swallows. Inspired by a recent trip to Portugal, they observed ceramic swallows decorating the fronts of many homes and storefronts. After some research, they found they are a symbol of love, loyalty, hope and new beginnings. Patti relates that “since swallows return to the same nest each spring, they also symbolize home and family. What is better than that?” On November 9 at Saline Middle School, 7190 N Maple visit Patti and Mark, and share in her enthusiasm for their unique product line of pottery.

Did they announce if they’re doing the 1 mile run down Michigan avenue?
If this mileage passes, has the City of Saline, for example, committed to reduce their millage by 2.0 that they no longer
need to send to the Fire Department?
It should be stated that this mileage is going to raise the taxes for many homes by $800 per year (based on a $250K SEV). There has been no commitment that the 2.0 mil that currently exists will be replaced even though it is alluded to. That is a huge increase.
The Fire Dept. likely does have unmet needs. We have been in meetings where the Fire Chief has spoken and our impression has been that he is not fully transparent, massaging information to present a case to achieve what he wants rather than solidly and transparently defining reality and options.
