We'll see how these come out...<br /><br />Thanks for appreciating Paul's stuff. I think the experience was enough for him. Once he had that one lesson, he understood how fine ceramics are made and that gave him a huge new visceral grasp of that wonderful artform.<br /><br />It was a one-off life enriching adventure, I'm guessing. But now he knows how to do it.<br /><br />I highly recommend you try it for one day at least, you'd be fabtastic at it!Shelley Noblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10968333057020378002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25158433.post-46141397759063196132009-10-02T14:54:17.612-07:002009-10-02T14:54:17.612-07:00Shelley, I hope these little tea cups comes out fi...Shelley, I hope these little tea cups comes out fine from firing.
