New Year's Resolution

Good morning everyone on the 1st day of 2013!

I woke up this morning thinking that I should write down my new year's resolution for pottery.

1. Start early, don't wait until show time! 11 months before the Holiday Show in November and if I want to showcase around 70 new pieces, I shall make at least 6.3 pieces a month.

2. Make a new casserole dish. I made one last year but I found it too shallow.

3. Make a teapot set. I made a teapot last year, however, the spout wasn't done well and it doesn't pour right. The glazing wasn't done well either.

4. Make 25 soup bowls to donate for the Ottawa Guild of Potters annual Great Bowls of Fire 2014.

5. Make at least one dozen mugs for the Holiday Show.

I think the list above would make me really busy for the year. Let's see how many things I can check off by the end of the year. :)

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. :)

Great Bowls of Fire 2011

I was delighted to take part of the Ottawa Guild of Potters' Great Bowls of Fire . This is an annual event raising funds for the Ottawa Food Bank. I was one of the bowl markers and helped a bit of the set up. My bowls are the dark blue ones at the bottom of the picture.

January 2018 update

January 31, great day to conclude the work I've done for the first month of the year. I guess it's also a great start to check off some items on my list for this year. :) Here are the pieces I made in January. I cheated a bit on one of the garlic keepers as I started that at the end of December. Some bowls for Great Bowls of Fire were made and a number of mugs as well. Garlic keepers and soup bowls And my TODO list is getting slightly longer. My mom asked me to make a few mugs for her friends in Hong Kong. My parents have been great supporters of my work and this is just to show that they think that their friends might like them as well. Still need to make more to fill the kiln, but I am happy with the accomplishment so far. Mugs to be
