I just wanna send so much prayer to @Louise Buckles and your family. It’s so devastating with the fire! I’ve been thinking a lot of you. Sending you so much strength and healing in the situation ❤️🙏🏼❤️

Should we keep buying the next new machine? By far 3d printing has boosted the hobby artist to the artist level in crafts and especially in ceramics. The evolution of ceramics and surface design has come a long way over the last 1000 plus years and more so recently with the use of 3D printing. The urge to buy the machine is real and hard decision to make. For some of us who can not or do not have this option I think its good to remember that using the original surface design techniques can be just as good to make that perfect piece. So if you cant get that new machine remember paper cut outs, slip trailing, stencils, stamping, cricut use and every other non machine technique is always there for you to use. And if all else fails make New friends with Machine owners!!! 😆 🤣 LOL.

We had 11 participants. I was at the wheel for 7 hours. We had 13 saved projects to be bisque fired. Everyone was so proud of their little pots..boy did the clay fly! 😁 Yes i left the splash pan off! I was covered in clay..and some of the kids too! Really great turn out and a great day!

I know there are lots of you that have enjoyed making the Wuuurms, so I have continued the theme with Whimsical Snails, I put a Tutorial up yesterday if anyone fancies making some. 😊 I love making little Critters for in the Garden especially at this time of year, as the weather is improving. 🐌🐸🐛 I’m thinking of doing a Tutorial on my Whimsical Frogs next. (There seems to be a theme emerging) 😂 Just out of interest, are there any other little Garden Critters you would like to see made?
