What a week this has been! I survived birthday week, Open Studio Weekend and fired my kilns 7 times(2 bisque and 5 glaze firings!)
The Dare mug I made for my daughter turned out fabulous and she loved it. In so glad because it took 3 hours for me to paint the design on with underglazes. I didn’t all free hand and although I have pretty good drawing skills I only had one mug to put the design on so there were no second chances.

I finished the 7 carved Mishima mugs I’ve been working on and yes, I did finally clean off the big work table just in time for Open Studio! Now to try and keep it clean.

On a fun side note an acting troupe is rehearsing Jersey Boys across the street which will be opening in June at the Weston Playhouse. I am going to try and go see it and since I am letting them use my wifi maybe I can get a deal on some tickets lol.

What do you think about mini/micro pots? I think they are so fun to make them but since Mini Makr is no longer making their wheels I don’t have a good mini wheel to recommend. What mini wheel do you like?
