Kiln Favorite #1 – Large Stamped Bowls
I’m pretty excited about the new bowls that just came out of the kiln!
Probably the largest and most stunning bowls I’ve ever made?!… if I do say so myself.
With dramatic stamping, deep finger impressions, beautiful glaze reactions and more.
I love ’em!!! I’m so excited… Here’s a little teaser…
Kiln Favorite #2 – Holiday Ornaments
And I’m more than a little enamored with my new holiday ornaments!
I’m trying really hard to not keep them all for myself. I was a little concerned that they
may “jump off” their firing tripods during the volatile soda firing. I am happy to report
that there was only one jumper! So now I need to finish them off and get them ready
for the upcoming Holiday Home Show! And “convince myself” that I can’t keep them all!
Kudos on the good firing! The pots look great. I am sure those ornaments will be flying off the table. How heavy are they? I made some ornaments a while back, but was worried that they would be too heavy to actually hang on a tree.
I sure hope the ornaments are well received. They seem to be getting a great reaction from the photos so far! I threw them all “off-the-hump” and tried to keep the walls pretty thin. As with all clay ornaments, they might be a little on the heavy side, but not too bad. I know I have some blown glass ornaments that are heavier on my tree! I still want to put some sort of hanger on the tops… wire? ribbon? And then figure out which ones I’m going to keep for myself (selfish) and what the price point will be for the rest?! My Holiday Home Show is just a few days away, so I’d better get my act together!!!
