cookie jar/box

So as my first project in ceramics this semester, I made a cookie jar/box. I hand built it so it's not perfect by any means. Throwing pieces on the wheel makes them much more accurate! Anywho for my blog challenge I thought I would take some high angle pictures of it. I love the glaze! It was so much fun to make. I skipped taking a picture of books but I will do that one tomorrow.

Today is CRAZY! Husband picked me up from school and said he had a bad day and wanted to go to Craigos.(now pizza pie cafe) If any one knows what this is, you know what you never say no to Craigos. Its a buffet of all you can eat pizza, pasta and salad and it's heaven. Seriously GOOD pizza, trust me. Anyway I'm on pizza overload so now I will waddle around all night doing homework boo!

  4. I had a ceramics class in college that I loved and I miss it so much! I need to find a studio I can just go hang out at for a day and make as much random stuff as I want. Glazing was my absolute favorite. I love the writing on the side!
