Really enjoyed the group chat yesterday! Thanks so much everyone, it was so much fun! Here are a couple of things that came out of my kiln yesterday. I will be uploading the kiln opening soon! As you can see, I love fairies! I think the moon fairy is my favorite.

It's not much, but it's more than I've got now. Last night I found a used camper that I will convert into a pottery studio. It will be here this coming week and I'll make a few mods to make it for for purpose. I'm so excited to have a dedicated space! https://www.facebook.com/share/17GhWZCwjH/

I met up today with @Clare Fuchs in London at another pottery event again. The first time we just happened to bump into each other and Clare recognised me as we are mutuals on Instagram. This time we actually planned to meet up and had a lovely time talking all things pottery, sustainability and life in general! We were at Ceramic Art London, my first time going and I really enjoyed it! Lots of amazing artists, but talking Clare was definitely one of the best parts of the day!

I saw a chicken water thingy on Potter's Journal ages ago and decided to try making one for my cats. It came out of the kiln this morning. This lad loves smashing his paw into any plant saucer with water in it and drinking the water out of it no matter how awkward the angle so he loved drinking out of this. This one was to try proof of concept so I might make a few more for my outside cats with a bigger saucer and head of water. Also it meets the 'glaze you hate' challenge as I used Riptide which I bought on seeing the pic in the shop, but it is matt and only gets the colour on the front of the jar at cone 10 reduction. Pah. So it has loads of other blues and snow on it for a watery effect. Plus a clear over the top. Cone 5.5. Link to original video https://youtu.be/yyg2GT1cenQ?is=UDgoWdud8lhfOD8X

Looking forward to making tools rather than buying them!
