Since the orangestone clay appears to be the problem with the woo yellow glaze shivering off, I am making these out of phoenix instead. The surface isn't quite as dramatic so it makes for a quieter pot, but I have some other ideas with them too.

2015-09-08 - Tuesday - Garlic pots
Tuesday night I made some smaller garlic pots by request from the Carolina Raptor Center. I have some garlic pots in the gift shop there and they are looking for multiple price points. After making four small ones I couldn't help but make a larger one.

2015-08-10 - Monday - Unloading the kiln
On Monday Kim, Becky, and I unloaded the kiln. As always there were some surprises, but overall I was happy with my haul. It's like Christmas in August.
The only problem I had was some of the new woo yellow I mixed "shivering" off of my garlic pots. I am going to get some help "loosening up" that glaze.
