What I'm Making

{and, see previous post on 'mistakes'} Got a burst of creative glass-making energy recently, and fired up the kiln. Doesn't hurt that it's almost 100 degrees outside in the daytime -- my preference is to take advantage of that and do a lot of glass projects in these hotter months: less time to get up to temp in the garage and the kiln ...

I've tried several new techniques and, to a technique, there've been problems with the results. I'm going to try to save each project and what I'll learn doing that is worth it in and of itself.

Frustrating and disappointing to open the kiln and -- what the hey is that?? Or, more likely; I see that my Attention-To-Detail module wasn't working when I did this; if only I'd paid closer attention to ... Etc. So, there will be photos of before- and after-projects as they progress. In the meantime, this is excellent practice in: practicing!
