Three little plates

Three more little plates out of the kiln.  Ok so maybe I am a "little" obsessed with little plates right now but I am having the best time making them.  I promise soon I will post pictures of some of the other ceramics I am working on.....as soon as they are finished!!

 Birdy glazed with V361 Jet Black and sgraffitoed
 Also glazed with V361 with the addition of of V327 Turquoise Blue in the side dots.  I'm liking the added color to the black and white

Little Baskets!!

These little baskets are made from cotton fabric and fibers.  The  buttons on each one are handmade ceramic buttons.  They measure approximately 2.5 - 3 inches tall.  The oval ones are approximately 6" across and the round ones are approximately 4" across.  These are perfect for holding your cell phone or your keys or anything you need to put in a spot so you can find it later.  Enjoy!!

And even more out of the kiln!!!

 This is a planter which stands about 6" tall.  The black is CC118 Cobalt Crystal Black and the red is CC194 Red Wagon.

 This is a 6" plate.  The black is V361 Jet Black and the green is V354 Leaf Green.  I am really enjoying the sgraffito on these pieces.
 Another 6" plate also with V361 Jet Black.  The lavender is V321 Lilac.
 This sweet plate was made for a friend and it is flying its way to her right now.
 This plate is a bit larger and way heavier.  I am still working on getting the plates thinner when I throw them.  The black is V361 jet black and the yellow is V308 yellow.
 This piece made itself when it was sitting on my table.  It was a scrap piece of clay that I had cut a circle out of.  When I picked it up to squish it into a ball I looked at it again and saw the front of a person.  So it remained that way till it was dry and bisqued.  The body is CV102 sagebrush and the neck is SY 546 Fired snow.  I have put two holes in the top to hang it.
 Buttons!!!  These are going to live on the fabric baskets I have been making.  I will take photos of those with the buttons soon!
 Totally wonky bowl!  But if you put a hole in the bottom it becomes a planter and a great area for me to test out sgraffito work.  the black is CC118 cobalt crystal black and the red is CC194 red wagon.

 This one reminds me of a flower.  The inside is IN1209 neon yellow sprinkles with IN1207 neon red sprinkles in the middle.  The outside was done with IN1071 lemon.

 This too is a planter.  The outside of the bowl was textured with embossed wallpaper.  When I rolled the clay out I put the wallpaper on one side of it then slumped the clay into the mold.
 You can see the texture a bit better here.
