On Friday, I reattached the handle to my multiwheel piece. Hopefully it will stay there!! I also did a cross hatching design on my bubble lidded project. Then I attached a handle to my mug as well as carved some wording into it. Hope everything it still in place and ready to be bisqued on Monday!
On Thursday, I finally finished a teapot I was making. It is like the other slab teapot I have made, but I just never got around to finishing it. Also on Thursday, I made a lidded project with a bubble lid (something new that Ms. Heideman showed the adv. students) and a cylinder for a mug.
So that big project I am making, the multiwheel with two handles, well, one of the handles fell off! I am so sad! I had been using a heat gun to dry the handles so that they would keep their shape, but I guess the project itself was too dry already and the still wet handles just weren't sticking together. Now I have to let it sit in a bag of wet clay in hopes of making it a little wetter so that I can reattach the handle...
Last week I started making a huge project. It is a multiwheel project made up of four projects and two handles. This is probably the biggest thing I have ever made! Its so crazy!!
Today I made quite a few projects! First, in class, I made my two plates, then after I was done with my plates, I made this huge thing. I am not sure what to call it. I guess it is a mix between a bowl and a cylinder. Then I came into class after school and made my lidded project. I was surprised at how big I made it. Then I made a pretty tall cylinder with a fancy lip, and a little vase with a huge flared out opening. I made quite a lot!
I finished My bowls and now I am getting ready to foot them. I have completely forgotten how to foot! I guess I will just have to give it my best shot!
Today we were told that we were going to be making bowls. One we get to keep and one that we are donating to this bowl drive. All the advanced ceramic students started right away with making our bowls. I found it a little hard to get back into the swing of things on the wheel. Its been so long since I have done this!
