A HUGE thank you to all the wonderful, delightful

A HUGE thank you to all the wonderful, delightful people who came out this weekend and bought from me!! I was so happy to meet so many people who follow me here and many repeat customers which means you like my work! You really like my work!! (To paraphrase) We had some great conversations, didn’t we?
Can you stand just a little bit more gold? This Koi Jar went home with a delightful new friend and I hope they get a lot of pleasure from it!

I’m feeling happy it was a good firing and I have many nice things to offer for sale this weekend! This bowl would be great for mixing some scrambled eggs or serving green beans or just a large personal bowl of oatmeal! Hope to see you this weekend at the @studioartour

At this moment, These, along with 99 other pots are all bisked, glazed and slowly heating up in the glaze kiln. On their way to 2300+ F. Handles so carefully and lovingly, I now take them to the the brink of the clay’s tolerance-porcelain gets soft around cone 10– and if they survive, come out ready to be unchanged for the next 10,000 to 30 thousand years or more.
These will be available during the @studioartour this coming weekend.

Something I spent hours on!! Like 4 hours at least. Would you pay $150 for a butter dish? This is often my dilemma. I’m very pleased with it however. Let’s just hope the kiln gods are kind to it. If so, it will be available during the @studioartour October 1&2.

I filed the handles right off two of these as I had such bad cracking on 3 others from this batch. (Swipe) despite repairing with admittedly old and possibly wornout paper-clay, at both green and bisque stages, they were ruined so I learned my lesson and removed the other handles! The seconds will be available during the @studioartour Oct. 1 & 2 at my stop.

And now back to our regularly scheduled #mugshotmonday
Can you tell this little hedgehog is collecting flowers? I love children’s book illustrations.
Or perhaps I’m inspired by all the burrs our cats got into this year!

Welcome to “How things turned out” here are the glaze-fired results of greenware versions I posted earlier. Usually I find I prefer the greenware stage more attractive ( but much less functional!😉). Do this is for everyone who asked to see how these turned out.
