Tonight I finally got around to finishing up some wall pocket vases.
Trimmed, stamped and accented with some colored slip.

I really like these. Do you throw them upside down as a closed form?
CHANTAY – Yes. I throw throw them upside-down as a bottomless cylinder, that I then close at the top. When it gets a little stiffer, I clean off the bottom edge that was touching the bat, do some stamping, squishing and slip accenting. And voila’… an “instant” wall pocket vase!!!
