It's finally Friday and I'm looking forward to a relaxing weekend.
Today I want to share something non-paper related... My very first "I LOVE IT!" pot. It's not my first pot... oh no. I've been taking wheel throwing classes up in Tulsa since January and this is probably my 100th pot. But it's the very first one that I absolutely LOVE!
It is made with 5 pounds of clay and measures about 8 inches tall and 6 inches wide at the top. It is the perfect size for a small houseplant or possibly a great container for large kitchen utensils.
I just finished up the last glaze class and this was my final piece. I experimented with overlaying two glazes - both with the same base. I knew that the blue glaze tended to run a bit, so I rimmed that over the green. I am so thrilled with the results! The area where they overlapped has a hint of a buttery yellow.
While I still have a long way to go and a lot of practicing to do, I am excited to see the progress I've made. Now to talk my hubby into buying me a wheel for Christmas...
Thanks for stopping in today. Have a super-duper-fantabulous weekend!
Hugs
