Cleaned & waxed… ready for a quick night of glazing.
Just one final glaze kiln before this weekend’s art fair in Naperville…
PRAIRIE VIEW ARTS this Friday night & all day Saturday!

To celebrate the last class of our LILLSTREET THROWDOWN class, we threw another potluck. And I decided to make a cheesecake… with homemade hot fudge… on a handmade platter. I considered it my own personal “throwdown.”

And now back to the pottery…

Kicking off my Saturday by meeting with my “very first art fair friends” who commissioned an oval casserole dish. They wanted a nice creamy, ivory-ish, neutral white… so I’m giving them two choices! Hopefully they’ll love at least one of them!!!

A little bit of sunlight to help accentuate the stamps & colors of this shallow bowl?…
platter?… bowl?… bowl-platter?… bowlatter?!!!

So I unloaded my cone six glaze kiln this morning. The “special request” bowls for a friend to give as a Christmas gift came out… and turned out pretty darn sweet if I do say so myself.

She only wants one blue bowl and one green bowl.
But I can’t just make TWO bowls, right?! So I made two sets instead!!!

Very similar… different stamps, different patterns and a slightly different green!!!

I may be stuck in the studio glazing tonight… but why not be a bit festive at the same time?! So I’m “celebrating” with a Christmas classic… or so I’ve been told… my first time watching “The Santa Clause.”

So what’s YOUR favorite Christmas movie???

Glazing up my final kiln of the year!
And yes, that special order for matching bowls is in the kiln, as well as two sgraffito platters & some bowls that have been “collecting dust” on the shelves in my studio! So I dusted them off, cleaned them up and sprayed them with some glaze! Can’t wait to see them… they might just make the perfect gift?!!!

Some beautiful stamped green bowls fresh out of the kiln for this weekend’s
