It’s been a busy day today. I made this! It’s a ring shaped vase, some will have more holes and others will have just one. It’s a miracle it came out of the mould but I’m glad I persevered with it. I’m quite excited about finishing it.The vase above came out of the mould below that I made about a year ago and hadn’t had much success with getting a whole piece out of it. By the laws of mould making it shouldn’t really work as the clay shrinks around the centre of the mould and sticks to it often resulting in cracking. When I’ve tried it before it’s always broken, i think it was because i was too hasty trying to get it out, this time i left it to dry for 3 days and it worked. Hope i can get a few more out over the next week and fire and glaze them to add to my shops.


That vase looks beautiful. I’d love one with holes all the way round.
Well done on your patience, it was well worth it 🙂 Beautiful!
I love your pottery!
Thanks very much for the link – rasberry vodka is superb (much better than sloe vodka or gin)
Oh that looks really interesting. Can’t wait to see it finished. Would look fab with a few gerberas in 🙂
