Yesterday was labor day, right? That means work or birth, right? I worked and these birds were born!

Forever

Remember those 5 large platters I was working on a few weeks ago? Well, four did not make it through the firing. Cracks, boohoo. Some worse than others. My favorite, this swan platter has the smallest hairline crack, just on one side. Deeply discounted on my Etsy site! Here

On the table this week

I'm too sad to post the pictures of the glazed platters from last week, 3 out of 4 cracked in the firing. I've done everything possible with caution, convinced it is the clay body. Until I get it sorted out I'll be doing smaller pieces, like these!
