Pottery class: glazing and firing

Tuesday, March 8th, 2011

My goodness, where have I been? I’m so sorry for the silence on my end. Life has been extremely busy in recent weeks…but, there are a few wheels in motion which might lend themselves to a serious evolution of this little blog of mine, so please bear with me while the wheels keep spinning!

Realizing I never gave everyone the final update on my little pottery experiment…apologies for that!

I was able to finish the little pieces I had been working on. Love them! I will say that the glazing part of the pottery process is by far my favorite. Choosing color combinations and glaze finishes is such a task though! It’s just hard to choose. To get a feel for different combinations, I tried to mix it up and I’m glad I did. Now, when I am ready to approach the potter’s wheel again, I’ll have the finished product in mind.

Here are some photos of the last phase of the process…and of my cute little creations! Some have already been given as birthday gifts (partial reason for the delay in this posting!)
