Honestly the more I look at it I’m questioning my decision 😂 learning process…

Agree! It’s very therapeutic in that way. Although probably more expensive than therapy tbh 😂

Love the shape of this!

These are my favorite two ideas so far… either a blue/white combo that has a nice layering effect, or using oxides to make a squiggle design.

Thank you, I’m very curious if the birds will actually like it! I have seen ceramic “bird bottles” that hang in the eaves of houses in the northeast US for specific types of birds, but I’m not sure what birds we get in Pittsburgh might prefer…

It’s listed in my original post, Standard 437 Troy Porcelain

It is porcelain, but formulated for wood fire, and other people have fired this clay body successfully in this kiln. 🤞

Of course I feel like the actual trimming shown here is absolutely terrible but it’s the footage I had ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
