A Post About Pottery. What a Surprise.

Good Morning, Kittens.

I went to the pottery studio yesterday to pick up my final pieces. One is still in the kiln, so I probably won't get it until the Fall. I am Totally In Love with this bowl though. And, I think I'm going to send it to Tulsa William as a Thank You Present for hosting me. I'm going to give him a choice though, but my feeling is that he will choose this bowl. We shall see...

Anyway, besides the bowl, I had three mugs and two vases finished ... Here's one of the mugs:

Brown Green Mug

and one of the vases:

Bud Vase

I also had 6 pieces of bisqueware which I didn't have time to glaze this session. If I can take a course this summer, I may be able to glaze them then.

I am partial to the cute little handbuilt creamer:

Handbuilt Creamer

and this funky vase thing:

Funky Vase Thing

The other items are my most recent uploads on Flickr. Enjoy!

I don't have that many unassigned pieces this session, but stay tuned for a Pottery Giveaway within the next week or so. Love me. Love my crappy free pottery :-)

Have a Great Day! *smooches*

    I absolutely LOVE the blue glaze! And I particularly like the bud vase.

    Light is home from school now, and she took Ceramics II last term. She's got some great stuff, too. She has made a cookie jar for me. I just saw it. It's fantabulous! I'm going to take pictures and post them. You won't be the only one with a pottery post.

    Your Pottery is awesome! When I have taken pottery classes any items that are decent get stolen form the kiln. I am envious you end up with yours!

I'm Back (from Vacation)

 I'm back. I will be posting about my vacation soon.  Well, soonish ... maybe this weekend.  I dunno. Also, I came back to a big pile of stress at work.  Good times. Can I go on vacation again?  (Why, yes. Yes, I can.  I'll be flying to Atlanta for Pesach.  Just the weekend.  Not the whole dang thing.  My body needs gluten. And, then, a quick trip to NC in early May to see the 'rents.) ANYWAY.  Israel and Latvia posts coming up. Stay tuned. Or just look at the pix on my IG. *hugz*

If We Took a Holiday ...

 Happy Presidents' Day! Since I last posted, so much has happened ... I think.   I was going to bake my parents heart-shaped biscuits, because -when we were wee lads- my mom used to bake my brother and I heart-shaped biscuits on Valentine's morning.  They were not as good as the biscuits I make now. However, after I grated the frozen butter in my food processor, I tipped it out into the flour and the handle on the food processor broke.  The bowl fell into the flour.  I dug out a few pieces of plastic and a spring, and I threw it all in the trash.  I called the manufacturer.  They are sending me a new bowl ... in 2-3 weeks.  UGH.  HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE BISCUITS NOW?!?!? The SigNoth caught a cold, so Valentine's Day was even more of a bust.  Not that I really buy into the whole pseudo-holiday thing anyway. Saturday, I did my taxes. Refund, yay!  And, I ordered some nice stationery.  I thought it would be fun to use my fa...

Too Early But Not Early Enough

 6:00AM. With the new normal, I should be on a bus to the metro station, where I board a train and then another train to arrive at my office bright and early and chipper as a newborn squirrel. Today is special, though.  It's Pottery Class Registration Day.  Which is surprisingly competitive.  The DMV has too many Type A Soccer Moms (and Dads). In order to register for class, I have to log on at 6:30AM and hope the Pottery Gods are kind to me in the registration queue.  We shall see ... so exciting. After I register, I will then board a bus and a train ... and another train to get to my office.  Depending on what time I arrive, I will either work late (ugh) or take some leave (also, ugh).  Being totally honest, I will more than likely take leave because I hate being at work late.   This would be a perfect day to telework.  If we were allowed to telework.  Too bad Danger Yam (as one of my mutuals calls He Who Must Not Be Named) thinks...
