Not bad for my first attempt at a tea pot. Though that handle is 100% going to break 😳

Can't wait to ramble about how #pottery is the perfect hobby for #ADHD and mental health

A few of my favourite things!

Handbuilt stoneware bowl decorated with Hummingbird, hibiscus flower 🌺 and monstera leaves

I chickened out and replaced the antennea with wire

Here's what I did with the clay that I debossed using cut lino

#pottery #ceramics #clay #artist #art

I cut a pattern into lino, and here I'm testing it as a texture mat on some beautiful toasted stoneware clay

I use some cut tights to make a little parcel of corn starch, which I dab on to stop it sticking

I can then use this sheet of clay to handbuild anything I like

Am I delulu for thinking these antennae can survive without breaking?

Quadrate bowl made from stoneware clay textured with hand-cut linoleum.

Relaxing Saturday carving a bowl 😌

Always looking for new things to try #adhd so I was curious if lino cutting could be used to make my own texture mats.

Pretty happy with how this handbuilt bowl turned out - what do you think?

204 2cm tiles cut out and drying ready to bisque fire.

Planning to add them mosaic-style with grout around a mirror!

Turned some hand-made pots and bowls into natural soy candles, lightly fragrance with essential oils, with a wood wick to give a soft crackle sound
