I made some footed bowls for the first time that weren't too bad...I got some Mid-Century melamine bowls from my mom and used them as a form to push balls of clay onto the sides and played with different glazes. And of course I used bits and pieces of clay to make some jewelry.

| Fresh from the kiln! |
 |
| Four bowls made the same way with different stonewares, cone 6 and cone 10, and different glaze techniques. I call them Cloud Bowls because they especially look cloudy from the top. |
 |
| I made a boatload of pendants with my left over clay and tried out new stamps and glazes. Then I strung them on leather cord and learned a little about tying decorative knots. |
 |
| Slip experiments... |
 |
| I wound a strip of vinyl around their little bodies (slip was applied before bisque) and then dipped them in white glaze. After the glaze dried I pulled off the vinyl to reveal the raw clay beneath. |
 |
| The stencil experience looked silly during the process. |
