Let's wax some cheese! My partner needed some fridge space, so I decided to whip up some cheese, decided on fresh sheep's milk cheddar, now it's ready to wax, and age:D (more info in the alt) #cheesemaking #homedairy #sheepmilk #milkalternatives #dairysheep #cottagecrafts

Blue seems to be an ever popular color - here’s a sweet little mug and cake plate set - I like layering the glazes to see what different shades will appear #pottery #artisan #artisanpottery #clay #ceramics #handmade #cottagecrafts #blueskypottery

The opportunity to participate in a wood firing doesn’t come along for me very often, so I try to fit as many pots as I can. I love how this one came out 🙂 #pottery #artisan #artisanpottery #clay #ceramics #handmade #cottagecrafts #blueskypottery
