Well, the vases I made last night were still pretty damp today.
I went into the studio early this morning instead of biking in the rain.
I added some colored slip accents and started them drying slowly. When I came
back later this evening, I unwrapped them completely and started them drying…
with two fans blowing on them to speed it up a bit. Just before class, I decided it
was time to load them into the electric kiln. We turned it on a let it go for awhile
to warm it up… and hopefully dry it up a bit too. After class I set the program…
and they are currently being fired overnight. I hope nothing blows up?!
And now for tomorrow… all energy & focus switches to glazing & wadding!
I’ve got a LOT of pieces to get ready for my Friday night kiln loading.
