Big Changes
Last night, the dragonfly dishes came out of the glaze firing. We are very pleased with the results! The matte brown glaze spread a little and turned purple and blue. The result is a much more organic look and feel which is what we were hoping for.
The rest of the pieces in the firing were all worth getting weak kneed over, too! More photos of it all to come!
