This week I spent my time in the glaze room. I glazed my mug, vase, and one of my planters. My vase was particularly hard to glaze because I had to dip the vase into a glaze so it would get on the middle part and wipe it off for the top parts. I also tried to keep a glaze contained on my mug worth some tape, but it will drip onto the white below it. The flower in the middle was glazed with special glazes and I had to put 2 layers on it. My planter was the easiest to glaze; all I did was wipe the glaze of the edges to put pink down.
This week I worked on my lidded project. I've learned how to pull up the wall and find the bottom side together. This time to shape it I used the angles with fingers then choked it. The lid was harder to make because i had never made a good one before. I had to push down more on the lip to get it to fit both out and in.
