One more post about #forageandfire for now. Last thing we do is set up the light booth and take some pro looking photos of our favourite pieces. Here's Maria's vase with her wild glaze that she made from granite, wood ash, and mussel shell ash. I love how it pools in the horizontal grooves.

Happy potters at the kiln. #forageandfire is over for this year. Thanks so much to @erncsj.bsky.social @cjanebull.bsky.social @jardins3.bsky.social @caitlinmatthews.bsky.social and others for such an amazing week!

While we waited for the wood kiln to cool today we hiked Arch Rock Trail in Little Catalina. We'll be opening the kiln around 10:30 tomorrow. So excited! With

Today at #forageandfire we finished glazing, loaded the kiln, installed the new chimney, and lit the kiln. We'll be here stoking all night. With @cjanebull.bsky.social @caitlinmatthews.bsky.social @erncsj.bsky.social and others.

Quick and dirty glaze chemistry lesson for wild glazes foragers. Pick one from each category, no duplicates.

Day 2 of Forage and Fire is in the books. We spent the day hiking beaches, collecting rocks, and digging clay.

Day 1 of Forage and Fire is done! We spent the morning collecting materials from the beach and town, and did some preliminary glazing in the afternoon.
