Unreal! I’ve been lucky enough to pet sit for this friend and their home is like being in a museum, but better!

Gifted this set for V-Day 💚 Polka-dot tall house mug+saucer. Luckily the kiln gods were kind this week.

Hello, lover 💚 More to come. Happy Friday and Happy Valentine’s Day!

I don’t do anything with TS until everything is completely bone dry, which takes… a while! 😂 Luckily I am more of a hobbyist maker so it often works for me to make a round of work and then let it sit and dry for a couple of weeks until I have time to come back and apply the TS.

Candle pieces post-bisque, pre glaze firing. They’re all cooling in the kiln right now, prayers and vibes for a successful firing!

Something new. Looks like I will have some pots for Valentine’s Day after all! Mug pair, decorated with colored terra sig. Loving the monochrome moment, let’s see how the kiln treats them.

Time to start decorating. Thought I might have all of these done before V-day on Friday, but not sure that’ll happen now. Slow making is the name of the game, just have to have some more patience with the process. Happy weekend!

Thank you so much!

Shot from my holiday sale last month. Happy Friday y’all!

Thank you! They are all terra sigillata on the exterior, the white is just the base TS and the other two have mason stains added. After bisque I apply a black wash to give some more depth/texture.

Small footed jar from the holidays that makes me smile 😊
