I bisque fired some of the whistles I made earlier this week last night. The little Trumpet Whistle in the last post made it in there. I am going to try to glaze enough for a firing this weekend.
Clay is very drying and I had no idea that making so many whistles would suck all the moisture out of my lips. When I make beads, I use lots of lotion on my hands, but I think I will have to stock up on some chap-stick next time I decide to make these fun musical toys.
This is a beautiful shape Natalie! Drink more water! LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, I need to definitely drink more water. My upper lip is so sore! I kept wiping off the clay dust and I think I rubbed too hard. Lesson learned! ;)
DeleteA true artist is always willing to suffer for her art. Love the new whistles.
