Actually, not on the wall, but in the mail, headed my way. A glaze company’s sending me 4oz. sample bottles of their entire line. I’m so excited!
Tomorrow I get to discover whether or not the girl I got my clay from actually knew what she was talking about–that is, that my clay is actually high-fire. Fortunately that doesn’t involve risking melting my whole kiln full of ware, since I bisque at the same temperature whether or not the clay’s low-fire. I’ll just have to do a test or two afterward, to find out how mature the clay is at that point.
I don’t think I’ll be picking up any more free, unmarked clay any more. Too complicated. I hope the other varieties I got from her aren’t as groggy as this one, too…
I’ll also be doing my “About” page here in a few minutes, and I’ve added another link to my “Blogroll” (which fortunately won’t be called that once the new layout is done): West Coast Crafty. Yay!
