Labor Day Kiln Results

September 04, 2024

Yay for fall and snowmen. I ended up doing no traditional pumpkins. I thought I was going to do some orange ones, but when it came time to glaze I was in a different mood. A few of them, and some plates, came out lighter than I thought they would. I think my sand and surf is already really watered down so I didn't need to wipe back. I think I'm going to refire most of the stuff I used that on.

I'm not sure how I feel about the mushroom mugs. They are mushroom mugs, but they aren't as cool as I wanted them to be.

Kiln Results 8/28

Sangria is a great glaze and I really love it on this new texture. I need to make more things with that texture. Lots of leaves in this kiln. The grape leaves came out awesome as did the maples.

Kiln Sneak Peak 8/28

August 28, 2024

It's been so hot that my shelves have piled up. I have glazed and glazed and yet I still don't have empty kiln shelves. Here's the first of the progress though. My napkin holder and the pitcher with the new texture on the top look amazing. I hope that the rest of the grape leaves look like this one because those are perfect too. Also no dead worms on the mushrooms this time! Kiln Sneak Peak 8/28

I might have a scandi/3D obsession

August 26, 2024

I might be out of control on the 3D scandi things. I had this ornament that just wasn't fancy enough and turned it into a 3D ornament. I think I want to make this glittery.

Scandi Pumpkins

August 23, 2024

When I was at retreat with Michael Harbridge back in May, I was sitting with Debi from De La Designs and had the idea for a scandi pumpkin that was like her scandi trees. When I made the trees, I remembered that I hadn't made them yet. I learned a lot in my first attempt. The first is that I need to make sure that the bottoms are flat. The second is that I probably should have used a 60 degree cut instead of a 45. All that said, I'm still really excited by this and want to make a few more. I'm thinking a witches hat would be really cool like this too.
