heading for a glaze firing

again a short post, not that I think you are missing any special writing from me... :) I'm guessing its the images that catch your attention... so here you are...

these are heading for the kiln on Friday, fingers toes and eyes crossed for a result because with ceramics/pottery  things happen ...
one less teabowl....

porcelain bottle with ceramic pencil drawing, spoons, plain and tissue print..

ready to be transported

pendants and brooches,  two lost in production :( very fragile before being fired then they are very strong

a little retail therapy to have some fun with down the track...  the markers fire on glazed ware in the kitchen oven the pack says... the stamps are rubber but I hope strong enough to stamp into soft clay...
I'll let you know next week how it went when I uncross my fingers, toes and eyes :)

more pottery over on Sunday Ceramics or my Facebook page..

Lots of empathy from me! I used to break lots of things before bisque-firing. :(

My fingers and toes are crossed for your firing! : )

Hi Midori thank you for the empathy.. us potters have to learn to accept these breakages along the way.. still sad when it happens to a piece that is looking promising.. kiln is fired, waiting for it to cool now..
