With an extra “bonus” Fall-back hour this morning… I thought it would be a perfect chance for another 10×10 Challenge. This time with some small bowls… ten thrown before 10:00am.

Some pretty red anemone flowers with seeded eucalyptus in a small textured & soda-fired square vase. Loving the scroll pattern & the crazy-cool details in the flower’s center!

The sun is finally coming out… and the Fall colors are a-poppin’!!!

Lots of clouds covering the sky this morning. There was a moment of brilliance with red splashing across the clouds. But as quickly as it arrived… it also disappeared. Plunging us back into the gray clouds. Looks like it might be cloudy the rest of the day… but hey, at least I got a few moments of pretty!

All handles attached… whew!!!…
another dozen mugs done & ready for drying, firing, glazing & firing again!

Most people hate making handles… pulling them, scoring, slipping & attaching them. I might be one of the few who LOVE making mugs! In fact, if I were only allowed to make one form for the rest of my pottery career… it would be MUGS!!!

Gotta love getting those perfect spirals when trimming…
especially with my DiamondCore Tools trimming tool.

Just a little early morning stamping in the studio!
Some sweet little bowls… now even sweeter with some textured patterns!

More than ten pieces thrown before 10:00am… this time more wheelthrown holiday ornaments!!! Cute little “finial” ornaments thrown off-the-hump!

Tonight’s pottery class was full of tricks & treats! I brought the Halloween “Boo” OREOs… especially intrigued by the “glow in the dark” note in the corner. I sure hope they meant the packaging, and not the OREOs?!!!

We also had tiramisu & vanilla remix OREOs from the Netherlands & cinnamon bun OREOs from Canada! Thanks to Allison & Andrew for the imported cookies!!!
