and the Blogging goes on . . .

okay folks.  i'm a dune fan.  i'll give myself that, but i wasn't thinking dune when i embarked on making my first cornucopia last fall.





BION, this took me from 1 pm to 7:30 pm w/abt 45 mins break.  i still have two tumblers i had to redo.  the first two pics are on the reduction shelves.  the last pic is on the oxidation shelf.  once the fine tuning is done on the salt kiln, i'll be putting stuff on the shelf for it.

   

i got a really nice plate yesterday and the lid to my ginger jar.  guess i need a photo of it.  the studio manager showed me a really easy way to do that.  check out my pottery blog for more pics of the studio.  for some reason the clay was really compliant yesterday.  got an interesting bowl shape too.

New In My Shop . . .

Along with those new items I've listed or have yet to list in my shop, I have added a few other items.  Gift certificates, and an Empty Bowls promotion.  My shop is on etsy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now for the rest of the story . . . .

Hee, hee.  These are the rest of the items out of the kiln from december's oxidax/redux firings.






















 


   

well, that's it in a nutshell.  some of these items are interesting in shape as well as overall design.  i'll be making one more post which has info about other new features in my shop such as the Empty Bowls project and the new gift certificate options.

On to the good stuff . . .

 A majority of what follows I like really well. Here's a link to the post showing items that were damaged in the kiln.




























well, so much for the bugs.  i'll post the other items in another post.
