Lee and I went over the glazes for the back splash and there are a few I have recently added that we both like.
Now to move them from a 2 inch tile to bigger.
You know how this is -you make a test love it and then throw it on EVERYTHING- only to have it come out of the kiln ... and you look and go- OMG what is that?
Ouch- too bright, too loud too PINK- whatever.
So I wanted to put some combinations of different glazes on larger test to see how they all came together.
Or Saturday just depends on when she gets here.
I have high hope that it will all work.
I added in some pillow pots to help fill the kiln.
I like the new combination of the burgundy-red with the reddish-brown background.
Gosh did someone say it is time to put feet up and have a glass of wine.
Sorry- gotta go!
Cheers!

Oh I know that feeling well with firing pieces where something really unexpected happens.
Those pillow pots are amazing! Never seen anything quite like them.
My fingers are x'd -- these look wonderful - so hope the tests come out perfectly! Love the pillow pots. And we had a glass of wine with you -- lol!
Great work! You all are inspiring with the unique shapes, styles, and images you use.
