My current fav thing is carving, it starts with leatherhard clay covered in blue slip

Timing matters

And just give it a go, remember it's the process not about being perfect.

Enjoy

Birkenhead Book and Retro Hospice Shop


My favourite op shop - it's got my vote!

it always has cool retro- honestly you never know what you might find. Like this vintage London Transport model tram. I didn't know I needed it until I saw it and now it's found a home in my hall

If you haven't been --- Go!

Great people, cool stuff and a truly worthy charity

It seems impossible to find a simple but stylish toothbrush holder so......

I decided to try and make one

What do you think?

2 versions one slightly smaller, useful for pencils,markers and scissors. Or whatever suits your fancy!

Handmade pottery made in Devonport Auckland

Ceramics has taught me patience, every step takes alot of time. Throwing ,drying ,trimming ,bisque firing, glazing and glaze firing. And at every stage things can and do go wrong
Still experimenting with glazes but my current

Favourite new pottery glaze - honey flux base x2 with jungle gems Blue Caprice x2 and Peacock





Would you like to see more of my pottery process?
