liz's pottery extravaganza!

First, it's always good to start with a pic of schnoozeberry!
the bowl on the right is sooooo heavy :), but it's cute, and i bent
the poury thing by accident :)

called aqua libre! looks like broken glass!


I etched out those vines on the inside while it was still leather hard
it started out by being stained green, and i glazed it with clear,
but i guess it wanted to come out brown!

look they fit inside each other, how cute!

a plate/bowl?? under low fire you can get brighter colors!

cool looking bowl


outside of above bowl


cool weird inside bowl like object


above's bowl outside

cool mug, weird shape!


inside mug below! coolio!


all accidental, but cool

fake fiesta orange and teal!

one of my collapsed bowls that i turned into a candy dish/ashtray!




my prized plate, i love it so much, i just want to look at it all the time


a coffee cup that is just about 1/2 a cup (for measuring????)


another bowl i etched out (those dots around the top),
i also stained this green before i glazed it, and it came out this weird color?!?!?!?!


I have about 5-6 more things a coming.... i am trimming some tomorrow, and maybe glazing 1-2 things. i have to add some handles and what not... but my class is over and i am sad.
ps: cam got a new bike, we will post pics later. maybe he won't get hurt as much?
2 weeks til i go home!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to see my family!
3 more days til cam's 24th!!!!!

it was 8 weeks long, i think it was around $200 (there was a fee to "join" the school, then a materials fee, so total about 200). I loved the class and want to take another one, i just got so busy with icu that i have to wait until the nov/dec class.
