Fall Kiln Load
It was very strange looking into the kiln this morning and seeing these colors. I guess I’ve been making a lot of pinks and blues, because I wasn’t even sure this was my kiln (kidding!).
I’m very fortunate that this load came out with only a few pieces that need to be refired (including a custom ordered piece–why???), considering that my thermocoupler seems to have bit the bed (not to point fingers, but hubby put some stuff right near the kiln and the wire somehow got pulled out of the little hole…). AND the only cones I have left till next Tuesday are 07 and 04. Since the 07 turned into a puddle and the 04 was still upright, I think I did OK, but I like to be a little more exact than that.
I’ve added a couple of leaves that can be used as focal clasps. There are more to come, but I needed to get the firing done yesterday. Plenty more bisque to glaze absent-mindedly while watching a movie.
Since my camera has about another minute of juice left, I won’t get any of these posted in my shop today, but soon….
