Pots - kiln




Here is the outside of my slab...exciting stuff! They had to replace my dirt with better dirt for the footing of the slab. Its going to be 6" thick with some wire in to hopefully sterdy it up some. We have water drainage issues so the dirt behind it is to hopefully help the water drain around the slab...we'll see! Its been raining a lot here so the pouring of the concrete has been put off. Tomorrow the weather again calls for rain so I think now it has been moved to Tuesday.



I've put some photo's of the very narrow vases I made for lilies and other long stem cut flowers. Also there is a photo of the sauce dishes I made. For anyone with small kids these would also be great for small proportions for veggies. My kids love to eat out of little small bowls because they think they are getting a smaller serving of things they don't really like. A deep little bowl like this is very deceiving to the "little"eye.

cool regarding the concrete....iff the xtra dirt doesn't help with water drainage- try digging a pit and fill it with gravel(or shards of pottery i guess????) we also got plastic drainage tubes and led the water out to a gravel pit far away (?)on the property...to pull the water away from where it was accoumulating( put a screen over the opening tho to avoid clogs.... just an idea... if you need it...
show: the pipe is for the drape and the choice is black or white... i was going to choose black as my cloths and shelving are black... will it be too dark?- i was also planning on bringing clip lights...

Judi,
It won't be to dark if you have all light colored glazes. (I can't believe you get charged for the pipe!)
