So apropos.....

As I opened up the kiln this morning, amongst the still -hot pieces of pottery that I had fired yesterday afternoon...there sat this lid to one of my little boxes...split open into two pieces...

The box itself that the lid was made to fit on had the lettering hand-painted on it to spell out frustration, stress, angst, etc. etc. in one simple word: AACK!!

...and, that is exactly how I felt when I saw it!

This is really fun pottery. Have you every posted some of your pieces. I a have always had a longing to take pottery classes, but I wonder at my age if it is a skill that requires too much time to learn?

Great photo because the little lady seems to feel cracked!

Thanks for your sweet comment about my pottery. It is never too late to learn...I have taught classes with women of all ages! I do hand-building which is very easy. I think that working on the wheel can be a little more difficult...but fun!
Yes, I have posted some pictures of my pottery all throughout my blog, however if you go to July 9 and 10, 2009, you can see a collage of some of my work.
Thanks for asking!

You are so talented! I knew what your pottery had said even before you told me - because it's perfect for a top that splits in two!

I feel that way sometimes.

HUGS!

Can you glue it back together? It's too cute to discard.
