The last of the greenware soap dishes have been loaded for their bisque. They’ll be fired overnight/tomorrow.
I feel vaguely at loose ends. I have no special project anymore. (Well, there’s still glazing. But I know what I’m putting on them, and if the test dish comes out ugly, I have a backup glaze that needs no tweaking, so it’s just a matter of mixing the glaze, dipping and wiping the dishes, and firing them. That counts as over, as far as I’m concerned.)
Back to regular pottery, I guess. I want to focus on bug mugs and cream & sugar sets, as they’ve both sold well/out. And hey, it means I get to try out my giffin grip!

My name is Maaike Charron, and I'm a potter in St. John's, Newfoundland. I started fiddling around with pottery in summer 2006, when I was told volunteering in the local clay studio would get me free studio time. I mostly taught myself, spending a lot of time poring over books, magazines and websites, and occasionally pestering the more advanced (but very helpful) potters around me with questions. After about two years, I decided I'd gotten good enough to go into business for myself. This blog, started after my first big craft fair, was created to document the process of becoming a wondrously succesful craftsperson. (Or it will document How Not To Do It. We'll see.)
