Inspired by some pedestal bowls seen and used at a pottery school I attended in Italy for 2 weeks in October 2019.

Textured Vase
This is a short but sweet textured vase — perfect for a few flowers or succulent cuttings.
Small Textured Planter
This would be the perfect new home for a nice little succulent plant.
Multi-Colored Mug
This mug was colored by combining a number of different glazes. It’s hard to predict exactly how the colors will meld together during the glaze firing, but this mug was a definite win.
Drippy Bowl
These natural drips from two glazes interacting are amazing. In many ways, pottery is part science, part art, and part kiln condition magic!
Olive Oil Cruet
I loved this beauty so much when it came out of the kiln that it’s a keeper! 🙂
Happy Winter (post holidays)
In December, I made a few Christmas trees, mostly following a technique shared by Kevin Kowalski on ClayShare. I was pretty happy with how they turned out, and apparently, some of my extended family members liked them too! In December, I let many family members select a pottery item that I made and 2 of my 3 Christmas trees were chosen — the tallest and the smallest ones. They were all glazed differently, as I was testing out different glazes, but they still looked nice together.

Above is one of my favorite mugs from December 2019. It’s a mug with my family crest on it.
