I’m slowly adding new pieces to my Fields range. I have glazed the first batch of egg cups and will be coming out of the kiln in the next week or two. I’m trying to squeeze in as much making before I head off to Potfest Melton Mowbray in November. This week I made some more starry tealight holders.
This year I wanted to do something different with them, to improve the decoration and give them a different feel. In the past, I’ve planned out where each star will be, equally spaced around the tealight holder and every star is the same size. They had a structured feel. This year, I wanted them to be more energetic and natural. Each one is randomly decorated; no two stars are exactly the same size. I’ve added lots of dots for those faraway stars too. They’ve had their first firing and just need their glaze. I hope you like them as much as I do.
