Jump in, there is room for everyone! Except @scibri.com who had to have this explained to him. #bluejays

Other than pranks, I successfully made a plaster bat for my pottery studio, made a pasta bowl mould, and started the process to make a maker’s stamp. Oh and a mug.

My sister in law posted in the family chat to ask if anyone was in Toronto and planned on watching the Jays game. No one was (though we all want to be.) she’s like “oh me and a friend are going to watch from a bar.” Half hour later, she posts this from said bar:

Day 4: Here is the progress so far. Today’s goals: second coat of paint, paint window trim and sills, new light fixture, clean, reassemble. 6/6

STILL DAY 3: painted all the new trim. Shoulders and hands remind me that I am 45 and this is a horrible idea. I do it anyway.

Now it’s day 4 and dammit I’m going to finish! 5/6

Turns out it’s a good weekend for making pint glasses and experimenting with texture. It’s also a weekend where everything is drying super fast which is usually NOT the case where I live! #heatwave #pottery #ceramics #beer #texture

When you get a sample of clay called dark granite and you’re a curler, you just gotta. #pottery #ceramics #curling

Also more jugs and my studio looks like a crime scene but this groggy red clay is lovely to work with. #ceramics #pottery

Had a stressful, exhausting day at work…so, to get out of my own head, I made a beer cup! Slab built, used a texture roller I made and a fun rock. I didn’t let the slab stiffen up enough before I joined it but what makes it wonky makes it appealing right? #pottery #ceramics

I did some refining this morning. Was going to add texture but then decided to leave it smoooooooooth.

Go for the jugular today, I decided. #pottery #ceramics #lookatmyjug

Woke up early, coffee and toast on the porch. Short run, shower, and made some stamp blanks. Left them to dry, coffee with a friend. Lunch courtesy of @scibri.com followed by several hours of carving. Now time to nap before the Jays game. #saturday #running #ceramics

Just picked up my latest set of #pottery projects and learned my sheep has apparently been the talk of all the pottery classes for weeks 🤣

Who me?

Just retrieved all my lumpy projects from my first #pottery classes. They all survived! Far from perfect but I am so pleased. No cracks! These two were my favourite.
