Fresh out of the kiln this week, beachy vibes with this cute little thrown pot

And my first thrown mug, with my first pulled handle.

Bigger thrown pots all finished and fired

My throwing’s improving 😊

Spring has sprung in the rescue; almost all the hogs are awake with just a couple still dozing. Outside in the garage our guests are less visible as it’s colder out there, but this cute little fella came out to sniff the air after I’d cleaned up.

Trimming the bases of my wheel-thrown pots when they’re slightly dried out, to give a more pleasing shape. These are the biggest I’ve thrown so far, quite pleased with them. With more experience this shaping should be done in the throwing, but I’m not there yet.

#meetandgreet … Scary Spice! She’s had her toenails trimmed in between bouts of hibernation. Another blind long-stay. She’ll be more comfy after her pedicure 🥰

Say “cheese” Harris! A real character, totally blind so he’s a long-stay guest. Gave him a nice clean bed which he totally ignored and instantly went to sleep up against his glass door 🙄😂

Wheel throwing today. Getting bigger! 🥰

For some reason, after a 30+ year hiatus, I fancied making a pineapple upside down #cake. Should keep the boys quiet tonight.

When you’ve been asleep in your nest for weeks and you wake up and your claws need cutting! I’ve alerted the boss and she’ll do a toenail trim. Look closely and you’ll see what I mean.

#meetandgreet … Tom(1) and Morris(2). Tom is a total pudding with beautiful soft and glossy spines. Morris is spikey in every sense: he hisses, spits and shrugs, and his spines are properly lethal!

This one’s nearly ok. You can’t see from this angle but the hole’s wonky 😂

Set of incense burners just out of the kiln. Not entirely successful: I was a bit over-enthusiastic with the glazing and painted over the holes 🙄, but it’s nothing Best Mate can’t fix with a tiny drill bit.

Do all #hedgehogs hibernate?

There’s a hibernating 🦔 here 👇🏻 but it will emerge from time to time, so continue to leave food and water out and be careful not to disturb it if you see a pile of leaves like this in your garden 🙏🏻

I couldn’t find a name for this little one, another underweight juvenile. Docile and probably still poorly or on meds for internal parasites. She calmly obliged me with a beautiful close-up

Bought an #airfryer. It’s bloody massive. I had to chuck out a slow cooker and relocate the KitchenAid to fit it in. I’m terrified of it. I’ve christened it Darth Vader.
