I made it into the studio earlier than usual this morning so that I could get a load of pots glazed and back into the kiln. It's not a full load, mostly wide bowls and trays. Above you see my little containers of dot glaze. I have a few more but the amber and green are the main ones I use.
I did have a bit of a mix up yesterday. Or a potential one. I had made fresh batches of slip and glaze a few days ago, but failed to label the buckets. Duh! Bad move. They are both similar in color and consistency. I was 99% sure I knew which was which, but since I'm a bit obsessive I decided to check them out by running a quick test kiln last night. I WAS right, but I'm glad I didn't risk it.
Below are a couple of pots I demoed for my class last week. Good ole slip trailing. I've got these two in the kiln too.All for now. Have a groovy Friday.
