Anniversary Firing

Cleaning the pottery shelves for the kiln

 It occurred to me this morning as I was cleaning out the kiln that my upcoming firing is nearly on the one-year anniversary date of my very first firing! Although my first firing was not a great success, the follow up firing went well!I did not think to make an anniversary piece of pottery to put in the kiln. Perhaps I will have to devise something.

I've had several weeks of rampant pottery making and last-minute decisions to make ONE MORE PIECE! I have come to the conclusion that I officially have WAY more pottery than will actually fit in my kiln, but perhaps I will surprise myself! I'll be firing just in time for the Blowing Rock Art in the Park on Saturday, September 7th!
