Pots from the spring session

Haven't been taking pictures for my pots lately, finally took the camera out this afternoon....wow, I had 13 new pots sitting on the counter for a few weeks. Yes, it's time to move them down to the basement. :)

My husband has started to decorate my hand-built plates (by carving bamboos) and I think he has done an excellent job with them. They are all glazed with Elusive Green.

I've also made a number of mugs. And last Friday, I had finally made a mug with lid for my grandmother, hopefully it will turn out OK.

Pottery girl has been quite productive

Like I mentioned last time, since I didn’t have a show in December and didn’t spend much time outside this winter, I was able to spend more time in the studio. As a result, I actually have some finished pieces ready! I opened the kiln earlier this afternoon for my second glaze firing of the year (can you believe my 2nd glaze firing in April, this has never happened before)—here they are (sorry about the lighting…). The bottom shelf, the initial picture didn't work out and I had to take another one 2nd shelf with pieces that I did slip trail. This is my first time doing this and I quite like the result. 3rd shelf Top shelf I’ve also been trying out a new look for my mug handles, but they didn’t make it into this firing. Hopefully it won’t be too long before the next update!

Toothbrush holder's new owner

We delivered the toothbrush holder to own friends, Matt and Kana to "match" up with the soap dispenser they bought from me from the show last November. They seems to like it. :)

2019 wasn't a good pottery year

Welcome to the first day of 2020! Can't believe that this is my first post since last January?! What'd happened to 2019? Yes, just like the title says, 2019 really wasn't a good pottery year. It started out strong in January and then it'd gone downhill. :( Last January, I kept in touch with the lady who interested in some plates and bowls. I started making those plates back then, however, she'd written back to have those on hold. It was perfectly fine for me as I was only seeking for new ideas. I managed to make 7 plates and was quite pleased with them. Unfortunately work got really busy in the first half of the year. I did a lot of overtime and really didn't have time to make any new pieces. Then the Summer came, many weekends were spent on the golf courses. Again pottery didn't make it to the priority list. So, did I make anything else? Yes I did. The motivation came from signing up for my annual ...
