Studio Saturday - welcome gifts

At the ceramics studio, it was all happening on Thursday and Friday this week.
On Thursday, the arrival - thank you Mary! - of  two larger saggers and ball clay for sealing them, kiln furniture, buckets, china clay, casting slip, black slip, porcelain for slab building, black grogged clay. They are sitting on "the desk" to await use. One such use was mooted at our meeting on Friday - a group project of making things that use the saggers.

Thinking ahead to projects and spending time at the studio, I thumbed through a few old magazines to find inspiration ...
