Started another batch of wheelthrown ceramic ornaments today…
even though I haven’t quite finished the first batch yet.
Taught my class tonight how to throw ornaments as well.

I love your ornaments! How are you going to fire them
when they are glazed without them glazing to the shelves?

SUSAN – My ornaments will be fired in a soda kiln. So they will not have any glaze on them except inlaid in the stamps. They will be “perched” on a little clay tripod upside-down so the soda fumes can hit all sides of the ornament. I’ll be sure to show firing & finished photos of them in a couple weeks.
