Excuse the poor light in the studio, but you get the idea. They're glazed! Yay!
Hmmm .. What's next?

This was the blue I was trying to match. Yes, that's a Saturday Evening Girls bowl, a generous gift from hubby 💕.
I think that's pretty darn close!

I'm back from a week in Las Vegas... And certainly not rested, but had a great time. Back to work today finally! The SEG style Lotus bowl is hopefully for the Empty Bowls auction in Carson City.

Grape leaves in the fall. I've already had some sleepless nights planning the glaze for this one. I've changed my mind 100 times so far about the combinations. Maybe I can start glazing tomorrow, or maybe I have to think some more.

All is calm... All is bright.... for now 😂
Sneak peak at the 2025 Christmas tiles!
I generally start these in August, cutting tiles, drying, bisque fire, and designing.

SUNDAY, 3 pm Pacific I'll be updating my Etsy shop with some smaller items. Perhaps you'll find a unique gift for that far away winter holiday. If you miss the Etsy shop update, a 5 day auction on eBay starts Monday.
Shown is Eoghann's Tree Trinket Dish.

I'm thinking this design is highly stylized sunflowers. Very sweet! It's only about 7" tall right now... So about 6.25" when fired. No name yet. 3 more coats to go!

I had to share this from a private group...What an awesome quote!

The first coat on this one is done. No name yet. I feel like you can tell I was a pacific northwest/Alaska girl most of my life. Maybe a touch of desert rat. 😂

First coat on the pinecone vase has been approved by inspector Theo 👍
Did you know that the woody petals of the pinecone are called "bracts" and the bit at the end that's sharp sometimes is called the "umbo"? I certainly didn't.

Progress on the Poplars vase. You can see what I'm working on next in the background.... pinecones!

I actually got a full day's work yesterday. The only thing we had to do was pick up the Jeep from the shop. Ka-ching$$
7 cups to go!

So I unloaded the kiln this morning and here's the elephant ear vase. Good news, my new wax recipe is still good. Bad news, I'll have to refire this as the inside glaze crawled. BUT, I'm liking this melty look. What do you think? Too messy or just right?

3 coats done...one to go! (And the rim.) I've got about 4 small things to glaze fire tomorrow in order to do a final test on this new black wax. It worked well in the test kiln, but ... We'll see for "real" now.

It got a little more personality today!

Elephant Ears in progress. It's either going to be a wonderful melty beauty, or a pile of 💩. Let's hope for the first thing.

I decided i wasn't ready to tackle glazing a vase just yet, so these mugs shouted at me. Yep, really. Like "HEY! we're over here!!" 😂
