Now that the weather's getting a little warmer I've decided to start working in the shed a bit more. 😀

'What's that behind your back?' 🌻 I'm enjoying making some new fairies and working inside the house today because it's a lot warmer than being in my shed at the moment. ❄️ #ceramicart #sculptural #handbuilding

I think I liked visiting 'Glow' today at #rhsbridgewater It was very cold but thd lights more than made up for it 🥶
More handmade #christmastree luminaries will be in my etsy shop at 5pm today. I love how these have turned out as this time I've used a slightly speckled clay which can be seen underneath the drippy white glaze. It makes it look like the snow has come early and landed on these 🎄 #itsbeginningtolookalotlikechristmas
Tried some new glazes on little bowls 🤩 They are coming with me to Lytham Hall this weekend. #pottery #creatives #glazes

There are Trees, luminaries, little bowls, candlesticks and hanging decorations...I love this time of year 😀 🧑🎄 #christmastree #christmaspressieideas
Trimming some pots ❤ Who else loves this part of the throwing process? It's my favourite part especially when the clay is at the perfect condition like it was today...swirls and ribbons of trimmings galore 🤩 #christmasiscoming #prep #making

For all of you enquiring about these. They will be finished and in my etsy shop by the middle of next week. I'll post on here as soon as they are available. #etsyseller #shopsmall #christmaspressieideas
Firing pottery in a microwave Guess what I'm doing again today. It's such a beautiful day and perfect weather to get outside and do some more raku firing of my miniature pottery in my microwave 🙃 I love some of these glazes that I recently bought as a sample pack from @hotclayuk especially the last 2...gorgeously iridescent 🤩 #microwave #pottery #raku
First micro raku...and I loved it. I've only gone and done it. After seeing @adamceramic try this type of firing I've wanted to try it for myself. I've finally raku fired some miniature pots in the microwave using a micro raku kiln. It was brilliant! Once I'd set everything up and carefully run through the scenario of safely removing a VERY hot kiln from inside the microwave (bought second hand for this purpose) I set the timer. It's remarkable just how fast these tiny kilns manage to reach temperatures high enough to melt the glazes, mine needed only 8 minutes in total, so I knew that I had to be able to move it and put it down safely. I loved this and will certainly be doing it again as it's much cheaper than having to buy (or make) a standard sized raku kiln and just as fun! #raku #microraku #microwave #firing
