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!!!

Some Overdue Trimming
These are supposed to be matching bowls to go with the big salad bowl I made for La's Christmas present - the first one I made was easy. Getting the second one to match was tough - I got it close, but it dried to be smaller than the first.
What I did get out of these was a much better feel for trimming to the interior of the piece. These did turn out lighter than the ones I've sent through the glazing firing before. I will not get these through the bisque and glaze process before the year goes out - so it'll be next year before La gets the matching set. I should get the big bowl back from glazing this coming Saturday (whew - just in time for Christmas!!!!)
