This weekend looks a lot like last weekend ( #gnomes, oh so many gnomes), with the addition of #frogs🐸😂

Some tiny dishes with texture and glaze experimentation #handmadepottery,

My slab built bowl warped, I'm not at all surprised, but I like it. The glaze done by @dawdling-sphinx.bsky.social turned out awesome

#Gnome magnets in the making

A robin nesting perch with decorative details. @potterygoblin.bsky.social threw the bowl that I modified and decorated

Made some #pendants, trying to decide if we should add glaze. I want them to be able to accept natural oil scent. Thoughts?

Put that new tabletop right to work cutting ware boards.

A 6' by 4' plywood table awaiting a canvas cover.

Putting a new top on the studio work table, just need to cover it in canvas now

This is actually how we got started making #birdhouses. A jug design with a loop for a twig perch and #gnome decoration. @potterygoblin.bsky.social threw the jug.

One of my textured bowls has gone through the kiln and come out looking pretty good

It’s taken a hot minute to get back to the jingle bells. But I finally did and they all sound like brass bells! Even the two with minor cracks,(not in the pic), sound good.

I painted our logo last week. That's been on the to do list for too long

Finally got a repeatable design that works for the yarn bowls.

My first red ware rose glazed in pink on a tiny birdhouse. (It's too small, but I'll hang it up anyway 😂)

A birdhouse Joey and I created together

Tray of red ware clay gnomes, corvids, starfish and songbirds

This week's figures so far. I still have more songbirds and frogs to make before Monday

I've been working on textured slab built bowls. The third broke already, but I thought it looked cool

I got to experiment with a different red ware and I just had fun with it🐢

Thank you @mudwoodgnomes.com for our new clay birdhouse! We're ecstatic to see who moves in this spring!

Most of the packages that stay in USPS hands get scanned pretty often, but "Ground Advantage" which is handed off to UPS and possibly FedEx is absolutely awful and it has been since it was launched. So irritating that the companies trying to shut down USPS are allowed to interfere in their service.

The bottom of a tray I just made. The top will be glazed

Naked is my favorite with linseed being an option but Polyurethane will start peeling and getting plastic in your pottery, at least that's my experience with polyurethane.
