This week I experimented a lot with the different shapes of my projects. I've been debating whether or not to switch my theme topic from just vases to different types of bowls because I seem to be able to create better bowls than vases with larger amounts of clay. I will continue to work on this next week while my miscellaneous projects are in the kiln.

This week I'd say was a very productive and good week. I was able to attach all pieces of my teapot and it came out good. The kid didn't shrink as much as the base which made the lid a little bigger than I wanted but it still fits pretty good. Also on Thrusday I was able to make a large vase that I'm very anxious to foot and load into the kiln:)! Another one if my projects from last week also came out too.

This week the clay was really really wet so I had troubles making a lot of projects but I did experiment with some new techniques and ended up making one project that I like a lot just because of the size I guess. Hopefully next week I will be bake to make more

This week I experimented with different shapes on the wheel. I am trying to decide whether to change my theme or not. I may switch it so that the theme has more to do with the structures of the projects instead of the glazes because I concentrated on glazes last year. I will continue to work on this throughout next week.

This week I experimented with different types of shapes  on the wheel. I am trying to decided what theme I for sure want to do and instead of having it relating to glazes I think I'm going to change it so that the basic structure of my projects are the same but I will be able to do multiple types of glazes. I will work next week on trying to figure more stuff out. 

This week I concentrated mostly on my multi wheel project. I've decided to make a tea pot even though it's a lot of work for just one project I think I will feel very accomplished once it is all done. The body of the teapot is wide and the lid I made fits absolutely perfectly which I was very proud of. If ant wait to put it all together next week! I also experimented with glazes and drips which I think I will continue in future projects.

This week I made a couple new projects but some got too dried out so I had to throw them away which was disappointing but the vase shown below is one that survived. I'm not sure if I like the glaze on this it might just be because it was fairly thin. I am planning to make a teapot next week which should be interesting because my last teapot turned out ok but not great. I hope I can improve on it this time!
