Jen Mecca had a post on her blog the other day about cake stands. I'd never made one but I have seen some pretty good ones out there in the pottery world lately. Yesterday I was trying to think of what I could demo for my class and I said, Why not a cake plate?
I took a look at a few made by Kari Radasch that I liked and pinched her design for my demo. It went well. Now I have to figure out how to slip this thing. (I think I have a creative solution worked out so I won't have to brush the slip on). Now, what kind of deco. should I do? A Beaver in a wedding dress? Some birds? A Goat standing on top of a cupcake? Swirls and Flowers and Ribbons? I don't know. Maybe I'll mix up some pink slip. Ha.
Anyhow I feel really crummy that I'm not making pots at the moment. Or not many anyhow. I spent today on a side project with my friend Amy. I want to get in the shop tomorrow for sure and make a few pots.
Well, until next time, happy potting....and cake eating.
