I mixed some glaze with CMC gum and re-applied it to the Small Comforts. They should be refired soon. The more bare areas will have nice smooth glaze, and the smooth areas will have neat drippy bits. (At least, I hope that’s what’s going to happen. They *could* all just get horribly messy bits instead.)

One of the studio Christmas cactuses is in bloom.

First draft or some ornaments below. Some will be plain ol’ bulbs; others will be a surprise.

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.)
