"I had so much fun getting messy with the clay at the class. I really learned a lot about pottery making. I really love my bowl that I made to put my favorite jewelry in." - Rachel Creswell

"On the Front Porch was a great read. The ladies in our book club are always a pleasure to visit and discuss with. Really looking forward to our next meeting and that next great adventure." - Jessica Paige Turner

Ed Salter, a new Black Belt Treasures artisan, considers himself a “jack of all trades”.  Retired after 28 years in the Air Force, Salter stays busy with many projects in his hometown of Repton, and on his childhood “home place” in Burnt Corn.  His most recent endeavor has been an artistic collaboration with a childhood friend, Donna Wesley, also of Monroe County.

Black Belt Treasures is one of Alabama’s beauty spots and it is surely one of my favorites. Thanks to you and the group who helped to bring this about.

Please accept my warmest thank you for your awesome hospitality to the several groups I have asked you to host.  They have all enjoyed the local history and wonderful background information on the artists. It was quite an honor for my guests to purchase an Alabama treasure there at Black Belt Treasures.

Again, my sincere gratitude to you and your staff. - Alma M. Lett, Evergreen, Alabama
