Some other things ...

It was my birthday in September and I didn't know what I wanted as a present so told my hubby to put the idea on hold and, when I saw something I wanted, then I'd ask for it.  No point in getting something totally useless... I'm not really a handbag or shoe person, I don't really wear jewellery, I see the point of having one watch but no more.. you get the idea.

So I decided I fancied a ceramics/pottery class and I duly signed up.  It's something I've always wanted to do and I love it.  It's all handbuilding so far and we've just finishing coiling .. it's only 3 hours a week, at nighttime so not much time and oh my, does that time fly way too quickly.  So now I'm a little obsessed with it and would love to be able to do more but, as ever I'm limited by space, time and money!

Here's a pic of what I've made so far... not a stunner by any stretch of the imagination but I'm happy with it, even with the wonky top!!


No classes this week (le sigh, cue tears) but it starts back next week (cue unending joy).  Guess what I'm getting for my Christmas present?

  1. I think it's lovely! My own attempts at learning ceramics was less than successful (the teacher battling cancer missed nearly every class) but I'd love to try it again. I especially like the swirls all over it and the wider mouth. Great job!

  3. Very nice! I agree that pottery is addictive. It's what I was hooked on before switching to soap. Just wait until you start throwing pots on a wheel. What fun!
