My daughter Noe got me interested in succulents in early 2016 and ever since we've been on a quest!!! Naturally with so many new plants around, we needed pots to put all of them into. The typical pots you can buy from the big box stores just don't have character that suits these incredibly interesting plants. So we've both been making our own pottery. And now we're branching out into other plants - Aeroids, Orchids and Citrus!!! Check out what our green thumbs have been doing!!!

Carbon Trap Shino Pottery
The glaze firing for a batch of pottery I had at the pottery workshop I go to finished up a couple of days ago. I had over 40 pieces in this kiln load. I ended up using five glazes - one Red 25, several Tan Matte, plenty of MacKenzie Celedon, Janet's Clear and these in Carbon Trap Shino. I love the way this glaze clumps up when it is layered on thick. The pieces that don't have this chunkiness had a thinner layer, but that brought out the color more.
